Famous quotes containing the word kooning:

    My interest in desperation lies only in that sometimes I find myself having become desperate. Very seldom do I start out that way. I can see of course that, in the abstract, thinking and all activity is rather desperate.
    —Willem De Kooning (b. 1904)
