Vincent Van Gogh
If I succeed in putting some warmth and love into the work, then it will find friends. Carrying on working is the
Vincent Van Gogh
For me work is an absolute necessity, indeed I can't really drag it out, I take no more pleasure in anything than in work, that's to say, pleasure in other things stops immediately and I become melancholy if I can't get on with the work.
Vincent Van Gogh
Perhaps someday everyone will have neurosis.
Vincent Van Gogh
If your inner voice is telling you that you can't paint, by all means, hurry up and paint and silence the voice.
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
