About Vincent van Gogh
Vincent Willem van Gogh (30 March 1853 – 29 July 1890) was a Dutch Post-Impressionist painter who posthumously became one of the most famous and influential figures in Western art history. In a decade, he created about 2,100 artworks, including around 860 oil paintings, most of which date from the last two years of his life. They include landscapes, still lifes, portraits, and self-portraits, and are characterised by bold colours and dramatic, impulsive and expressive brushwork that contributed to the foundations of modern art. Not commercially successful, he struggled with severe depression and poverty, eventually leading to his suicide at age thirty-seven.

Additional quotes by Vincent van Gogh
The calamity leaves us our old courage and our old earnest energy. Let the world say venomously what it cannot refrain from saying; it will leave you and me cold. On the contrary, we are counting on the possibility of a hard life which will have a purpose other than earning as much money as possible. Our purpose is in the first place self-reform by means of a handicraft and of intercourse with nature, believing as we do that this is our first duty in order to be honest with others and to be consistent - our aim is walking with God - the opposite of living in the midst of the doings of the big cities.
When I see how several painters I know here are struggling with their watercolours and paintings so that they can't see a solution anymore, I sometimes think: Friend, the fault is in your drawing. I don't regret for a moment that I did not go in for watercolour and oil painting straight away. I am sure I will catch up if only I struggle on, so that my hand does not waver in drawing and perspective.

Deoarece există pierde-vară și pierde-vară, două tipuri care contrastează unul cu altul. Există acel tip de pierde-vară care se comportă astfel din pricina lenei și a slăbiciunii de caracter, din pricina josniciei firii sale, așa încât poți, dacă vei găsi de cuviință, să mă socotești ca atare. Există, apoi, și celălalt tip de pierde-vară, care se comportă astfel împotriva voinței sale, un ins mistuit pe dinăuntru de o nestăvilită dorință de acțiune, care nu face nimic deoarece se află în imposibilitatea de-a face ceva, fiindcă e ca și întemnițat, fiindcă nu are ceea ce i-ar trebui ca să fie productiv, fiindcă soarta potrivnică îi impune această situație; un astfel de om nu știe nici chiar el întotdeauna ce-ar putea să facă, dar simte din instinct: totuși sunt bun la ceva, presimt că am o rațiune de-a trăi! Știu c-aș putea fi un om complet diferit! La ce, oare, aș putea folosi, la ce, oare, aș putea sluji? Există ceva înlăuntrul meu, dar ce-o fi oare?
