“At seventy-three I learned a little about the real structure of animals, plants, birds, fishes and insects. Consequently when I am eighty I'll have made more progress.

At a hundred I shall have reached something marvellous, but when I am a hundred and ten everything I do, the smallest dot, will be alive.” LittlesMadeRealThreeAnimalAliveProgressMysteryTenBirdHundredStructurePlantFishesSmallestSeventiesInsectsNinetyEightyDotsMarvellous Author:Hokusai
