More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
People are often unable to do anything, imprisoned as they are in I don't know what kind of terrible, terrible, oh such terrible cage.
Vincent Van Gogh
There is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love, as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning.
Vincent Van Gogh
The great artist is the simplifier.
Vincent Van Gogh
I am unable to describe exactly what is the matter with me now and then there are horrible fits of anxiety, apparently without cause, or otherwise a feeling of emptiness and fatigue in the head.
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
Keep your love of nature, for that is the true way to understand art more and more.
Vincent Van Gogh
I tried to express through red and green the terrible passions of humanity.
Vincent Van Gogh
How can I be useful, of what service can I be? There is something inside me, what can it be?
Vincent Van Gogh
The lamps are burning and the starry sky is over it all.
Vincent Van Gogh
For loneliness, worries, difficulties, the unsatisfied need for kindness and sympathy - that is what is hard to bear.
Vincent Van Gogh
Whatever plan one makes, there is a hidden difficulty somewhere.
Vincent Van Gogh
Van Gogh was so under appreciated in his time, he sold only one of his 900 paintings while alive. Posthumously, he became one of the most famous artists of all time and his work is now considered priceless. Oh the irony.
Vincent Van Gogh
Modern reality has got such a hold on us that... when we attempt to reconstruct the ancient days in our thoughts...the minor events of our lives tear us away from our meditations, and... thrust us back into our personal [problems]
Vincent Van Gogh
Fortunately for me, I know well enough what I want, and am basically utterly indifferent to the criticism that I work to hurriedly. In answer to that, I have done some things even more hurriedly theses last few days.
Vincent Van Gogh
We are surrounded by poetry on all sides.
Vincent Van Gogh
The sight of stars always sets me dreaming just as naively as those black dots on a map set me dreaming of towns and villages. Why should these points of light in the firmament, I wonder, be less accessible than the dark ones on the map of France? We take a train to go to Torascon or Roven and we take death to a star.
Vincent Van Gogh
I want to touch people with my art. I want them to say he feels deeply, he feels tenderly.
Vincent Van Gogh
It is the painting that makes me so happy these days.
Vincent Van Gogh
My great longing is to make those very incorrectnesses, those deviations, remodellings, changes in reality, so that they may become, yes, lies if you like - but truer than the literal truth.
Vincent Van Gogh
What lives in art and is eternally living, is first of all the painter and then the painting.
