More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
Great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed.
Vincent Van Gogh
What color is in a picture, enthusiasm is in life.
Vincent Van Gogh
In trees, I see expression and soul
Vincent Van Gogh
I cannot help thinking that the best way of knowing God is to love many things. Love this friend, this person, this thing, whatever you like, and you will be on the right road to understanding Him better.
Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh
I have a firm faith in art, a firm confidence in its being a powerful stream which carries a man to a harbor, though he himself must do his bit too.
Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh
That I was not suited to commerce or academic study in no way proves that I should also be unfit to be a painter.
Vincent Van Gogh
Do you know that drawing with words is also an art... ?
Vincent Van Gogh
If I were to think of and dwell on disastrous possibilities, I could do nothing. I throw myself headlong into my work, and come up again with my studies.
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
One may have a blazing hearth in one's soul, and yet no one ever comes to sit by it.
Vincent Van Gogh
If boyhood and youth are but vanity, must it not be our ambition to become men?
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
Yellow is capable of charming God.
Vincent Van Gogh
It is with the reading of books the same as with looking at pictures one must, without doubt, without hesitations, with assurance, admire what is beautiful.
Vincent Van Gogh
