Vincent Van Gogh
Conscience is a man's compass.
Vincent Van Gogh

Vincent Van Gogh
The great isn't something accidental it must be willed.
Vincent Van Gogh
I feel such a creative force in me: I am convinced that there will be a time when, let us say, I will make something good every day , on a regular basis....I am doing my very best to make every effort because I am longing so much to make beautiful things. But beautiful things mean painstaking work, disappointment, and perseverance.
Vincent Van Gogh
