("My dedication to art? I have always kept myself drawing since very young, never thinking that I would actually live off art... For me Art has become a goddess which protects me as long as I remain devoted to her. Its my religion and my cience.")
''¿Mi dedicación al arte? Comienza desde muy joven, nunca pensando que viviría del arte... Arte, para mi, se ha convertido en una diosa, que me cuida mientras yo esté dedicado a ella. Ella es mi religión y mi ciencia. Yo soy su devota.'' -Damián Folch
