Vincent Van Gogh

A good picture is equivalent to a good deed.

Even the knowledge of my own fallibility cannot keep me from making mistakes. Only when I fall do I get up again.

An artist needn't be a clergyman or a churchwarden, but he certainly must have a warm heart for his fellow men.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

The first time with artistic endeavors is, if it's working, it was your idea, and if it's not, it's somebody else's idea.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.
