Vincent Van Gogh
If boyhood and youth are but vanity, must it not be our ambition to become men?
Vincent Van Gogh
One may have a blazing hearth in one's soul and yet no one ever came to sit by it. Passers-by see only a wisp of smoke from the chimney and continue on their way.
Vincent Van Gogh
To know life, one must love many things.
