Last Days in Paris

'I would still go on painting even if I knew my work to be atrocious... but I am not a city painter; I don't belong here. I am a peasant painter. I want to go back to my fields. I want to find a sun so hot that it will burn everything out of me but the desire to paint.'

- Van Gogh in Lust for Life, a fictionalized bio of the Dutch painter
