'For me, painting is often a hesitation. A wavering between despair and intense euphoria and rage. And euphoria - that has to do with hope though not in terms of one's own life but in terms of the work.' (A. Rainer quoted in: Aller Anfang ist schwer. Frühe Arbeiten 1949-1961, exh.cat. Arnulf Rainer Museum, Baden 2009, p. 111)
