If one is master of one thing and understands one thing well, one has at the same time, insight into and understanding of many things.

Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.

I dream my painting, and then I paint my dream.

If you hear a voice within you say "you cannot paint," then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.

For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream.

Happiness... it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort.

If you hear a voice within you saying, ''You are not a painter,'' 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.

It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality is more important than the feeling for pictures.

I can't work without a model. I won't say I turn my back on nature ruthlessly in order to turn a study into a picture, arranging the colors, enlarging and simplifying; but in the matter of form I am too afraid of departing from the possible and the true.

The more ugly, older, more cantankerous, more ill and poorer I become, the more I try to make amends by making my colors more vibrant, more balanced and beaming.

It always strikes me, and it is very peculiar, that when we see the image of indescribable and unutterable desolation - of loneliness, of poverty and misery, the end of all things, or their extreme - then rises in our mind the thought of God.

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

The way to know life is to love many things.

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

In spite of everything I shall rise again: I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, and I will go on with my drawing

Conscience is a man's compass.

I consciously choose the dog's path through life. I shall be poor; I shall be a painter...

There may be a time in life when one is tired of everything and feels as if all one does is wrong, and there maybe some truth in it- do you think this is a feeling one must try to forget and to banish, or is it 'the longing for God,' which one must not fear, but cherish to see if it may bring us some good? Is it 'the longing for God' which leads us to make a choice which we never regret? Let us keep courage and try to be patient and gentle. And not mind being eccentric, and make distinction between good and evil.

How can I be useful, of what service can I be? There is something inside me, what can it be?
