Quotes By Vincent Van Gogh

What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?

Even the knowledge of my own fallibility cannot keep me from making mistakes. Only when I fall do I get up again.

I dream of painting and then I paint my dream.

The way to know life is to love many things.

I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God's help I shall succeed.

I wish they would only take me as I am.

But I always think that the best way to know God is to love many things.

It is better to be high-spirited even though one makes more mistakes, than to be narrow-minded and all too prudent.

I can very well do without God both in my life and in my painting, but I cannot, suffering as I am, do without something which is greater than I am, which is my life, the power to create.

I see drawings and pictures in the poorest of huts and the dirtiest of corners.

I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people.
