    “A wife, a lover, can perhaps never see
    what the artist sees They rarely ever
    do. Perhaps a really mediocre artist has
    more chance of success.”

    “You sort of fell in love with Jane when


    you met her. She was exuberant,
    original, strong-minded and a very kind
    woman.”
