"The Painters Eye" p. 267-270
1. Merleau-Ponty describes, "If the painter is to express the world, the arrangement of his colors must carry with it this invisible whole, or else his picture will only hint at things and will not give them the insurpassable plentitude which is for us the definition of the real."
2. Merleau-Ponty," Because he was not omnipotent, because he was not God and wanted nevertheless to portray the world, to change it completely into a spectacle, to make visible how the world touches us."
3. According to Patrick Trevor-Roper, there is a myopic personality that artists, mathematicians and bookish people tend to share. They have "an interior life" differnt from others.
