“I asked him for some of the money I need to continue my work. He told me to come around on Monday. I went on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday and there was no money. On Friday someone else came to the door and threw me out. I’m discouraged about getting paid for this job.” Michelangelo May 2, 1506. The patron was Pope Julius II and the commission, never completed, was for Julius’s two-story tomb!

“If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.” Michelangelo
