More quotes by Vincent Van Gogh
I don't know anything with certainty, but seeing the stars makes me dream.
Vincent Van Gogh
I've just kept on ceaselessly painting in order to learn painting.
Vincent Van Gogh
The emotions are sometimes so strong that I work without knowing it. The strokes come like speech.
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
The worse I get along with people the more I learn to have faith in Nature and concentrate on her.
Vincent Van Gogh
The great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. And great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed.
Vincent Van Gogh
What is drawing? It is working oneself through an invisible iron wall that seems to stand between what one feels and what one can do.
Vincent Van Gogh
What has changed is that my life then was less difficult and my future seemingly less gloomy, but as far as my inner self, my way of looking at things and of thinking is concerned, that has not changed. But if there has indeed been a change, then it is that I think, believe and love more seriously now what I thought, believed and loved even then.
Vincent Van Gogh
Those Dutchmen had hardly any imagination or fantasy, but their good taste and their scientific knowledge of composition were enormous.
Vincent Van Gogh
I lost my job as an art salesman. It was the customer's fault. He wanted to buy the wrong paintings.
Vincent Van Gogh
The more you love, the more you suffer.
Vincent Van Gogh
I believe more and more that God must not be judged on this earth. It is one of His sketches that has turned out badly.
Vincent Van Gogh
Drawing is the root of everything, and the time spent on that is actually all profit.
Vincent Van Gogh
Close friends are truly life's treasures. Sometimes they know us better than we know ourselves. With gentle honesty, they are there to guide and support us, to share our laughter and our tears. Their presence reminds us that we are never really alone.
Vincent Van Gogh
One should arrive at leading one's conscience to a state of development so that it becomes the voice of a better and higher self, of which the ordinary self is a servant.
Vincent Van Gogh
But you people do not understand me, and I am afraid you never will.
Vincent Van Gogh
It seems to me it's a painter's duty to try to put an idea into his work.
Vincent Van Gogh
We have very beautiful bad weather here at present - rain, wind, thunder - but with splendid effects that's why I like it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Love is eternal, the aspect may change, but not the essence.
Vincent Van Gogh
a likeness different from the products of the God-fearing photographer.
