Narrow is the way
Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh, from Cuesmes, 24 September 1880
Just wait, and perhaps you'll see that I too am a workman. Though I cannot predict what I shall be able to do, I hope to make a few sketches with perhaps something human in them, but first I must do the Bargue drawings and other more or less difficult things. Narrow is the way and straight the gate and there are only a few who find it.
