God sends us pieces of art so that we may see ourselves in them
Vincent Van Gogh
To the one party, woman is always heresy and diabolical. To me, the opposite.
Vincent Van Gogh
I can't work without a model. I won't say I turn my back on nature ruthlessly in order to turn a study into a picture, arranging the colors, enlarging and simplifying but in the matter of form I am too afraid of departing from the possible and the true.
Vincent Van Gogh
Success is sometimes the outcome of a whole string of failures.
Vincent Van Gogh
The lamps are burning and the starry sky is over it all.
Vincent Van Gogh
Love is eternal, the aspect may change, but not the essence.
Vincent Van Gogh
There is no blue without yellow and without orange.
Vincent Van Gogh
What molting time is to birds, so adversity or misfortune is ... for us humans.
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
It was Richepin who said somewhere, 'The love of art means loss of real love'... True, but on the other hand, real love makes you disgusted with art.
Vincent Van Gogh
Let life be beautiful like summer flowers and death be like autumn leaves. Rabindranath Tagore What a simple thing death is, just as simple as the falling of an autumn leaf.
Vincent Van Gogh
Love always brings difficulties, that is true, but the good side of it is that it gives energy.
Vincent Van Gogh
If your inner voice is telling you that you can't paint, by all means, hurry up and paint and silence the voice.
Vincent Van Gogh
I am painting with the same enthusiasm as a Marseillaise eats bouillabaisse ... I am painting big sunflowers.
Vincent Van Gogh
Seeing that I am so busily occupied with myself just now, I want to try to paint my self-portrait in writing.
Vincent Van Gogh
It is better to be high-spirited even though one makes more mistakes, than to be narrow-minded and all too prudent.
Vincent Van Gogh
I lost my job as an art salesman. It was the customer's fault. He wanted to buy the wrong paintings.
Vincent Van Gogh
I am a man of passions, capable of and subject to doing more or less foolish things- which I happen to regret, more or less, afterwards.
Vincent Van Gogh
What lives in art and is eternally living, is first of all the painter and then the painting.
Vincent Van Gogh
I've never felt a desire (and I don't believe I ever shall) to bring the public to my work... a certain popularity seems to me the least desirable of things.
Vincent Van Gogh
