" "[Nature] only give it you, when you carefully consider its majesty and greatness. Does it not present beautiful scenes in front of your eyes that impossibly could be described to you by somebody else?.. ..[scenes], which you can try to realize afterwards in your room on the canvas or panel.

Additional quotes by Barend Cornelis Koekkoek
(original Dutch, citaat van B.C. Koekkoek:) Voor een landschapschilder.. ..kunnen eenvoudige natuurtaferelen even zoo strelend zijn, als romantische. Welligt leerzamer, daar het oog er meer eenvoudige harmonie in beschouwt.. .Zo was mij de statige Rijn voor Emmerik; hoe eenvoudig het tafereel ook was, ik vond het schoon.. .Waarlijk schoon.
Shall I now ask these palette-slaves what poetry means, and in how many forms it appears to us? They want to chain her [poetry], just as they are tied up themselves to their master's palette, [or] to some part of the sacred history.. ..to a folktale.. .. a miraculous landscape .. .. or other pompous imaginations.
..on the banks of a very picturesque mountain stream that pours out its crystalline water in four or five waterfalls into the Dussel brook.. .Oh, in this cave, at this crystal flood, I often felt myself so well! Sensations frequently welled up in my bosom at this blessed place that ennoble the soul and make pour out joyful tombs; [they] give the heart impressions that neither greatness or honor can steal from us. An indomitable longing came to me, to learn more and more about these enchanting shades of beautiful and holy nature, and to transfer them on the canvas with my brush.
