More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
The great isn't something accidental it must be willed.
Vincent Van Gogh
I hope I shall be able to make some drawings in which there is something human.
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 am painting with the same enthusiasm as a Marseillaise eats bouillabaisse ... I am painting big sunflowers.
Vincent Van Gogh
Describing Starry Night: Firmament and planets both disappeared, but the mighty breath which gives life to all things and in which all is bound up remained.
Vincent Van Gogh
We are surrounded by poetry on all sides.
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
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
Try to walk as much as you can, and keep your love for nature, for that is the true way to learn to understand art more and more. Painters understand nature and love her and teach us to see her. If one really loves nature, one can find beauty everywhere.
Vincent Van Gogh
If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite, something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go far to find it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Ah, Manet has come very, very close to it and Courbet - the marrying of form and colour.
Vincent Van Gogh
Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me.
Vincent Van Gogh
I wish they would take me as I am.
Vincent Van Gogh
I am not an adventurer by choice but by fate.
Vincent Van Gogh
The lamps are burning and the starry sky is over it all.
Vincent Van Gogh
Great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed.
Vincent Van Gogh
One of the hardest things to do is to paint darkness which nonetheless has light in it.
Vincent Van Gogh
It always strikes me, and it is very peculiar, that, whenever we see the image of indescribable and unutterable desolation—of loneliness, poverty, and misery, the end and extreme of things—the thought of God comes into one's mind.
Vincent Van Gogh
I sometimes think there is nothing so delightful as drawing.
Vincent Van Gogh
I feel the need of relations and friendship, of affection, of friendly intercourse.... I cannot miss these things without feeling, as does any other intelligent man, a void and a deep need.
Vincent Van Gogh
