“Sam Francis speaks willingly about his dreams. They are part of a continuous journey inward. He dreams of cities and rooms, of blue landscapes and irises blossoming, of distant journeys and images with mandalas, of wheels and fire and demons. And he often dreams of light and water, tidal waves, the sea.”

P. Selz, Sam Francis, Henry N. Abrams, New York, 1982, p. 13.
