What am I in the eyes of most people — a nonentity, an eccentric, or an unpleasant person — somebody who has no position in society and will never have; in short, the lowest of the low. All right, then — even if that were absolutely true, then I should one day like to show by my work what such an eccentric, such a nobody, has in his heart. That is my ambition, based less on resentment than on love in spite of everything, based more on a feeling of serenity than on passion. Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me. I see paintings or drawings in the poorest cottages, in the dirtiest corners. And my mind is driven towards these things with an irresistible momentum.

As it happens, I’m not at all satisfied with this year, but it may yet provide a solid basis for the next.

“The heart of man is very much like the sea, it has its storms, it has its tides and in its depths it has its pearls too”

But I don't think I belong to that category of souls who are ready to live, and also ready to suffer, at any moment.

“because I have walked this earth for 30 years, and out of gratitude would like to leave some memento in the form of drawings and paintings— not made to please this school or that, but to express a genuine human feeling.”
You did that and so much more, Vincent. 💛
