Vincent Van Gogh
But on the road that I'm on I must continue if I do nothing, if I don't study, if I don't keep on trying, then I'm lost, then woe betide me. That's how I see this, to keep on, keep on, that's what's needed.
Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh
If the storm within gets too loud, I take a glass too much to stun myself.
Vincent Van Gogh
I often think of you all, one cannot do what one wants in life. The more you feel attached to a spot, the more ruthlessly you are compelled to leave it, but the memories remain, and one remembers - as in a looking glass, darkly - one's absent friends.
Vincent Van Gogh
So often, a visit to a bookshop has cheered me, and reminded me that there are good things in the world.
Vincent Van Gogh
It is no more easy to make a good picture than it is to find a diamond or a pearl. It means trouble and you risk your life for it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Whoever lives sincerely and encounters much trouble and disappointment without being bowed down is worth more than one who has always sailed before the wind and has only known prosperity.
Vincent Van Gogh
