Ma Van Gogh, ty lo~ fandary uarel lo covkraika?  Cel lo~ lorraita uarel lo

loly covkrairem lo dey, hse o ifimaht.  Linda hdar ai?  Ydrinrem, kwa hsan

But Van Gogh, what if he had quit his art?  In his lifetime he'd never won,
and IIRC he never even sold one painting.  Actually, he DID quit, most
horribly.  Was that wise?  Winning, why is it so important?  Maybe it's the
doing that's important.  And the doing and the doing and the doing.
