Vincent Van Gogh Quotes
I do not intend to spare myself, not to avoid emotions or difficulties.

Change may be the vitalizing wind blowing through the house of life, but it is not an abiding force. We need permanent things to soak peace into us as well as progress - the beauty of the earth, seedtime and harvest, the smiles of lovers, the joy of the young in being alive, pride in craftsmanship.

If we cannot be contented with a little no wealth will ever satisfy us.
