About This Quote
If you can't love yourself, how can anyone else? This is a sentiment that was expressed by the great artist Vincent Van Gogh, who once said, “To love oneself is the beginning of a life-long romance.” Self-love is essential for self-improvement. If you don’t love yourself, you will not be able to love others, which ultimately means you are destined for failure. The world needs people who are capable of loving themselves.
