Vincent Van Gogh

“Do not quench your inspiration and your imagination; do not become the slave of your model.”

“Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.”

“I often think that the night is more alive and more richly colored than the day.”

“I wish they would only take me as I am.”

“One may have a blazing hearth in one's soul and yet no one ever comes to sit by it. Passersby see only a wisp of smoke rising from the chimney and continue on their way.”

“The best way to know God is to love many things.”
