"Painting is a faith, and it imposes the duty to disregard public opinion." ― Vincent Van Gogh Topic(s): Faith Tags: faith, painting More From Vincent Van Gogh "In spite of everything I shall rise again: I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, and I will go on with my drawing." "I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process." "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." More In Faith "Only our individual faith in freedom can keep us free."― Dwight D. Eisenhower "God, our Creator, has stored within our minds and personalities, great potential strength and ability. Prayer helps us tap and develop these powers."― Abdul Kalam "I don’t think it’s any coincidence that I lost my religious faith and ‘manned up’ in the same year. I was described somewhere as a lapsed Catholic, which is funny because I’m not going back! I want to achieve things rather than live life in an animalistic way."― Jimmy Carr
