Hundertwasser's comment on the work

The line of life is anything but straight.Sometimes a broad way, sometimes a narrow path.Sometimes steep, sometimes quiet.Like slowly flowing water.Every day is different from the one beforeand from the one to follow, but full of surprisesand yet it has its precise laws in every minute segment.Life is the greatest adventureit is the long journeyit is the long way.Kaurinui, February 17, 1997(translated in 2002)(from: Hundertwasser 1928-2000, Catalogue Raisonné, Vol. 2, Taschen, Cologne, 2002, p. 1112)
