Sticking it out
Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh, from The Hague, 3 June 1883
Sticking it out is not always an easy thing to do.
Look, man has no stauncher friend than his duty, and though at times it may be a rough and stern taskmaster, as long as one works in its service, one will not easily become a bankrupt.
Letter 290
