There is nothing more truly artistic than to love people. - 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."

"There may be a great fire in our soul, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke."

"La tristesse durera toujours.[The sadness will last forever.]"

"I dream my painting and I paint my dream."

"Only when I fall do I get up again."
