More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
There is something intimate about painting I cannot explain to you ? but it is so delightful just for expressing one's feelings.
Vincent Van Gogh
One must never let the fire go out in one's soul, but keep it burning.
Vincent Van Gogh
If you work diligently... without saying to yourself beforehand, 'I want to make this or that,' if you work as though you were making a pair of shoes, without artistic preoccupation, you will not always find you do well. But the days you least expect it, you will find a subject which holds its own with the work of those who have gone before.
Vincent Van Gogh
Only when I fall do I get up again.
Vincent Van Gogh
Conscience is a man's compass, and though the needle sometimes deviates, though one often perceives irregularities in directing one's course by it, still one must try to follow its direction.
Vincent Van Gogh
There is peace even in the storm
Vincent Van Gogh
Art is jealous, and demands our whole strength ... .
Vincent Van Gogh
No, no thought to the winnings. One loves because one loves.
Vincent Van Gogh
I would like to leave this world and never return. I severed my ear, but how I wish that I had severed my heart. I shall never amount to anything.
Vincent Van Gogh
Love a friend, love a wife, something, whatever you like, but one must love with a lofty and serious intimate sympathy, with strength, with intelligence, and one must always try to know deeper, better, and more.
Vincent Van Gogh
I am always doing what I can't do yet in order to learn how to do it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed.
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
Do you know that drawing with words is also an art... ?
Vincent Van Gogh
What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?
Vincent Van Gogh
I am a fanatic! I feel a power within me...a fire that I may not quench, but must keep ablaze.
Vincent Van Gogh
Admire as much as you can. Most people do not admire enough.
Vincent Van Gogh
What a splendid thing watercolour is to express atmosphere and distance, so that the figure is surrounded by air and can breathe in it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Spring is the fresh green of young corn and the pink blush of blossoms. Autumn contrasts the yellowed foilage with violet hues. Winter is the white of snow against its black forms ... Summer is the contrast of blues and the golden bronze of the corn.
Vincent Van Gogh
In trees, I see expression and soul
Vincent Van Gogh
