To any any critic or art historian who has seen Eugene Martin's work but failed to take notice, I ask you: from what deficit do you suffer that you did not immediately recognize this man as a genius?

I like very much the last quote, I think it's very true. Actually many of the quotes, even when they have some humour to them are very true.

Thanks for sharing!
