"I feel more and more that we must not judge of God from this world, it's just a study that didn't come off. What can you do with a study that has gone wrong? -if you are fond of the artist, you do not find much to criticize- you hold your tongue. But you have a right to ask for something better. We should have to see other works by the same hand though; this world evidently slapped together in a hurry on one of his bad days, when the artist didn't have his wits about him. All the same, according to what the legend says this good old God took a terrible lot of trouble over this world-study of his. I am inclined to think that the legend is right, but then the study is ruined in so many ways. It is only a master who can make such a blunder, and perhaps that is the best consolation we can have out of it, since in that case we have a right to hope we'll see the same creative hand get even with itself. And in this life of ours, so much criticized, and for such good and exalted reasons, we must not take it for anything but what it is, and go on hoping that in some other life we'll see something better than this."
~Vincent Van Gogh
