Vincent van Gogh was born on this day in 1853.  In honor of Van Gogh’s birthday, I thought I would share some of my favorite Van Gogh quotes:

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

“It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to…. The feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.”
