Favourite Vincent van Gogh quotes (part 2)
“I want to touch people with my art. I want them to say ‘he feels deeply, he feels tenderly’.”
“We are surrounded by poetry on all sides…”
“In the end we shall have had enough of cynicism, skepticism and humbug, and we shall want to live more musically.”
“Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me. I see paintings or drawings in the poorest cottages, in the dirtiest corners. And my mind is driven towards these things with an irresistible momentum.”
“If you hear a voice within you saying, “You are not a painter,” then by all means paint - and that voice will be silenced.”
“I must continue to follow the path I take now. If I do nothing, if I study nothing, if I cease searching, then, woe is me, I am lost. That is how I look at it — keep going, keep going come what may.”
“So what do you want? Does what happens inside show on the outside? There is such a great fire in one’s soul, and yet nobody ever comes to warm themselves there, and passersby see nothing but a little smoke coming from the top of the chimney, and go on their way.”
“…aren’t the wise ones, those who never do anything foolish, even more foolish in my eyes than I am in theirs?”
“For myself, I declare I don’t know anything about it. But the sight of the stars always makes me dream.”
“The more you love, the more you suffer.”
