The painter of the future will be a colorist unlike anything yet.
Vincent Van Gogh
I wanted to make people think of a totally different way of living from that which we, educated people, live. I would absolutely not want anyone to find it beautiful or good without a thought.
Vincent Van Gogh
How lovely yellow is! It stands for the sun.
Vincent Van Gogh
I am risking my life for my work, and half my reason has gone.
Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh
To die for the sake of dying - I prefer to die of passion than to die of boredom!
Vincent Van Gogh
For instead of trying to reproduce exactly what I see before me, I make more arbitrary use of colour to express myself more forcefully.
Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh
How can I be useful, of what service can I be? There is something inside me, what can it be?
Vincent Van Gogh
Oh! I must somehow manage to do a figure in a few strokes.
Vincent Van Gogh
You will say that everyone has seen landscapes and figures from childhood on. The question is: Has everybody also been reflexive as a child? Has everybody who has seen them also loved heath, fields, meadows, woods, and the snow and the rain and the s.
