Image
If one feels the need of something grand, something infinite, something that makes one feel aware of God, one need not go far to find it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
At times it is not easy for me to take up living again.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Do you know what makes the prison disappear? Every deep, genuine affection. Being friends, being brothers, loving, that is what opens the prison, with supreme power, by some magic force. Without these one stays dead. But whenever affection is revived, there life revives.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Rembrandt is so deeply mysterious that he says things for which there are no words in any language.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
It is not only by one's impulses that one achieves greatness, but also by patiently filing away the steel wall that separates what one feels from what one is capable of doing.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
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
Image
Do not think too deeply about these things - gradually they will become clearer to you
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
It is only too true that a lot of artists are mentally ill - it's a life which, to put it mildly, makes one an outsider. I'm all right when I completely immerse myself in work, but I'll always remain half crazy.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
I hope I shall be able to make some drawings in which there is something human.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
For the great doesn't happen through impulse alone, and is a succession of little things that are brought together.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Love a friend, love a wife, something, whatever you like, but one must love with a lofty and serious intimate sympathy, with strength, with intelligence, and one must always try to know deeper, better, and more.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
No, no thought to the winnings. One loves because one loves.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
I myself am quite absorbed by the delicate yellow, delicate soft green, delicate violet of a ploughed and weeded piece of soil.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
To express a marriage of two complementary colors, their mingling and their opposition, the mysterious vibrations of kindred tones.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
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
Image
What a simple thing death is, just as simple as the falling of an autumn leaf.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
When I have a terrible need of - shall I say the word - religion. Then I go out and paint the stars.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
How right it is to love flowers and the greenery of pines and ivy and hawthorn hedges they have been with us from the very beginning.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Painting is a faith, and it imposes the duty to disregard public opinion.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination do not become the slave of your model.
