Paul Gauguin
The cyclone ends. The sun returns the lofty coconut trees lift up their plumes again man does likewise. The great anguish is over joy has returned the sea smiles like a child.
Paul Gauguin
Soon I'll be old and I've done precious little in this world for lack of time. I am always afraid I'll become senile before I've finished what I've undertaken.
Paul Gauguin

Paul Gauguin
Beware of luxury! Beware of acquiring the taste and need for it, under the pretext of providing for the morrow.
Paul Gauguin
Poor artist! You gave away part of your soul when you painted the picture which you are now trying to dispose of.
