More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
It astonishes me already when I compare my condition today with what it was a month ago. Before that I knew well enough one could fracture one's legs and arms and recover afterward, but I did not know that you could fracture the brain in your head and recover from that too.
Vincent Van Gogh
Art demands constant observation.
Vincent Van Gogh
The only thing to do is to go one's own way, to try one's best, to make the thing live.
Vincent Van Gogh
If I did not succeed I still thought that what I had worked on would be continued. Not immediately. But there are others who believe in things that are true.
Vincent Van Gogh
If one truly loves nature one finds beauty everywhere.
Vincent Van Gogh
To believe in God for me is to feel that there is a God, not a dead one, or a stuffed one, who with irresistible force urges us towards more loving.
Vincent Van Gogh
An artist need not be a minister or a collector in church, but he must have a warm heart for people, and I find it a noble thing that, for example, no winter passed without The Graphic doing something to keep alive sympathy for the poor.
Vincent Van Gogh
What is drawing? It is working oneself through an invisible iron wall that seems to stand between what one feels and what one can do.
Vincent Van Gogh
I consciously choose the dog's path through life. I shall be poor I shall be a painter.
Vincent Van Gogh
Painting as it is now promises to become more subtle - more like music and less like sculpture - and above all it promises color. If only it keeps this promise.
Vincent Van Gogh
Nature always begins by resisting the artist, but he who really takes it seriously does not allow that resistance to put him off his stride on the contrary, it is that much more of a stimulus to fight for victory.
Vincent Van Gogh
To express a marriage of two complementary colors, their mingling and their opposition, the mysterious vibrations of kindred tones.
Vincent Van Gogh
Admire as much as you can. Most people do not admire enough.
Vincent Van Gogh
Art is to console those who are broken by life.
Vincent Van Gogh
The cure for him would be to take a good long look at some potato plants, which have lately had such a deep and distinctive colour and tone, instead of driving himself mad looking at pieces of yellow satin and gold leather.
Vincent Van Gogh
My aim in life is to make pictures and drawings, as many and as well as I can then, at the end of my life... looking back with love and tender regret, and thinking, 'Oh, the pictures I might have made!'
Vincent Van Gogh
...to look at the stars always makes me dream, as simply as I dream over the black dots of a map representing towns and villages. Why, I ask myself, should the shining dots of the sky not be as accessible as the black dots on the map of France?
Vincent Van Gogh
It is good to love many things
Vincent Van Gogh
Normality is a paved road: It’s comfortable to walk, but no flowers grow on it.
Vincent Van Gogh
But you people do not understand me, and I am afraid you never will.
Vincent Van Gogh
