Theo Van Gogh

I would not be able to pen an academic and dry diatribe. I have too much talent for that.

As soon as you sit down to write about something you are pressing your nose deeper into the sewer of facts.

If I were still twenty years old, I would really move to America.

I think it is possible to be friends even if you're competing. You know, there's so many guys in rooms that try to psych each other out, and it doesn't work. It only hinders their work.

A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.

Those who write the editorials and those who write the columns, they simply are unaccountable. They're free to impose their cultural politics in the name of freedom of the press.
