"All the surviving letters written and received by Vincent van Gogh
(1853-1890) are contained in this edition of his correspondence.
<javascript:ZZLN_toggleLayer('note1')> 11. Over and above the 902 surviving
letters, there must have been at least 550 letters written to Van Gogh, and
at least 290 letters written by Van Gogh that we no longer have (see
Correspondents, Lost
<http://vangoghletters.org/vg/correspondents_4.html#intro.II.4.2>
correspondence). Excepting only the digital form in which they are now being
published, this is the continuation of a long tradition"

"Manners are of more importance 

 

than laws. Manners are what vex or soothe, 

 

corrupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarize or refine us

 

by a constant, steady, uniform, insensible operation, like that of the air  

 

we breathe in." 

 

Edmund Burke (1729-1797)
