“The strictness of the man and his theory are at every point tempered by his passion and warmth, by his dedication to communicating a wide range of humanistic moods and feelings to his audience, the intelligently sensible.” -Henry Geldzahler
(Henry Geldzahler, quoted in Josef Albers at the Metropolitan Museum of Art : An Exhibition of His Paintings and Prints, New York: 1971, p. 4.)
