“Don't bother about the result. Throw away your thinking of art, and then become yourself: just walk quietly in yourself, in your own ground.”

Gerrit Benner (1897–1981) Dutch painter

version in original Dutch (citaat van Gerrit Benner, in het Nederlands:) Je moet niet aan het resultaat denken. Je moet de gedachte aan kunst van je afzetten, en dan jezelf zijn: rustig doorwandelen in jezelf, in je eigen gebied.
Quote of Benner, as cited in a short text, announcing the exposition of Gerrit Benner in Stedelijk Museum, The Hague, 2010 https://www.gemeentemuseum.nl/nl/tentoonstellingen/gerrit-benner
