I found a stamp in my pocket just now

I must put a good face on the matter when I'm with Mauve; Mauve has really done enough. . . .
I found a stamp in my pocket just now, otherwise I should not be able to send you this letter. It is a time of struggle for you and for me, but I think we are making progress. So let us keep courage.
To Theo van Gogh, from The Hague, 5-6 January 1882, Letter 168
