Additional quotes by Bram van Velde

Life and mind are continuously in conflict with each other. I want happiness, security. I won’t reach that by considerations of my mind; on the contrary they will lead to a certain despair of the inner person. Not what he thinks engages the artist, but what he feels.

To be nothing. Just nothing. It’s a frightening experience. You have to let go of everything.

Life is wrecked by living.
