Vincent Van Gogh:
[in letter]
Dear Theo, I've seen Doctor Gachet. He's a pleasant man and he has some good paintings in his house. He wants me to do his portrait. But as for his helping me, I'm afraid we mustn't hope for too much. When the blind lead the blind, don't they both fall in the ditch? Gachet is right about one thing: this place is beautiful. It tempts me to paint, and the work goes well. Besides portraits I've been doing some landscapes. I have a feeling of being sure of my brush than ever before. So, I work in haste from day to day; as a miner does knowing he's facing disaster
