- “Now I drew as wildly during my tramps [during his walks through the Saxonian countryside] as I has fought before. [in his early youth]”
- “We desire to achieve to the socialist republic not only the recovery of the conditions of art, but also the beginning of a unified artistic area for our time.”
- “A new day. Calm as seldom the beginning of such a one. Did I dream? No! Dream and contented pure was the night..”
- “It is the sure certainty of having found unity with nature, this calm causes one of the strongest experiences.”
- “Man, air, trees, world are laid bare and are one!”

Hermann Max Pechstein ( German pronunciation: [ˈmaks ˈpɛçʃtaɪn] ; 31 December 1881 – 29 June 1955) was a German expressionist painter and printmaker and a member of the Die Brücke group. He fought on the Western Front during World War I and his art was classified as Degenerate Art by the Nazis. More than 300 paintings were removed from German Museums during the Nazi era.
