Quotes: Erich Ohser, a.k.a. E.O. Plauen

"If you draw, the world becomes more beautiful, far more beautiful. Trees that used to be just scrub suddenly reveal their form. Animals that were ugly make you see their beauty. If you then go for a walk, you'll be amazed how different everything can look. Less and less is ugly if every day you recognize beautiful forms in ugliness and learn to love them." 

–– Erich Ohser, a.k.a. E.O. Plauen (1903-1944), German cartoonist, creator of comic strip Father and Son
