More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
Someday death will take us to another star.
Vincent Van Gogh
I've just kept on ceaselessly painting in order to learn painting.
Vincent Van Gogh
The heart of man is very much like the sea, it has its storms, it has its tides and in its depths it has its pearls too
Vincent Van Gogh
Let’s not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives and we obey them without realizing it.
Vincent Van Gogh
a likeness different from the products of the God-fearing photographer.
Vincent Van Gogh
My brushwork is quite unsystematic. I slam the paint on in all sorts of ways and leave each result to take care of itself.
Vincent Van Gogh
The cure for him would be to take a good long look at some potato plants, which have lately had such a deep and distinctive colour and tone, instead of driving himself mad looking at pieces of yellow satin and gold leather.
Vincent Van Gogh
Describing Starry Night: Firmament and planets both disappeared, but the mighty breath which gives life to all things and in which all is bound up remained.
Vincent Van Gogh
There was a sentence in your letter that struck me, “I wish I were far away from everything, I am the cause of all, and bring only sorrow to everybody, I alone have brought all this misery on myself and others.” These words struck me because that same feeling, just the same, not more nor less, is also on my conscience.
Vincent Van Gogh
To exaggerate the fairness of hair, I come even to orange tones, chromes and pale yellow ... I make a plain background of the richest, intensest blue that I can contrive, and by this simple combination of the bright head against the rich blue background, I get a mysterious effect, like a star in the depths of an azure sky.
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
It is good to love many things
Vincent Van Gogh
It isn't an easy job to paint oneself - at any rate if it is to be different from a photograph. And you see - this, in my opinion, is the advantage that impressionism possesses over all the other things it is not banal, and one seeks after a deeper resemblance than the photograph.
Vincent Van Gogh
To know life, one must love many things.
Vincent Van Gogh
If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.
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
The laws of the colors are unutterably beautiful, just because they are not accidental.
Vincent Van Gogh
To stick to the present and not let it pass without drawing some profit from it, that's what I think duty is. ...let us perservere as far as we can rather today than tomorrow.
Vincent Van Gogh
Study, analyse the social structure - that's always far more effective than moralising.
Vincent Van Gogh
But you must love with a sublime , genuine , profound sympathy , with devotion, with intelligence , and you must try all the time to understand Him more, better and yet more. That will lead to God , that will lead to an unshakeable faith .
Vincent Van Gogh
