-To suffer without complaining is the only lesson that has to be learned in this life.-Drawing is the route of everything.-What I think is the best life is a life made up of long years of being in touched with nature not of doors.-The very best and the most effective medicine is still love and at home-I wanted to give the idea of a way of life wholely different from ours. I certainly don't just want everyone to admire it or prove of it without knowing why.-My painting of the night cafe I've tried to express the idea that the cafe is the place where you can ruin yourself, got mad, commit crimes.-We're living here in the world of painting, where everything is occupied by people who all intercept money. And you mustn’t think that I’m imagining this. People pay a lot for the work when the painter himself is dead.
