A painting by DavidCaravaggio with himselfas Goliath

Van Gogh missing an ear which he presumably cut off himself.

Are you still fasting?When are you finally going to stop?Forgive me everything,Certainly,we forgive you.I always wanted you to admire my fasting, But we do admire it,But you shouldnt admire it,Well then, we dont admire it,but why shouldnt we admire it?Because I had to fast. I cant do anything else,Just look at you,why cant you do anything else?Because,because I couldnt find a food which tasted good to me. If had found that, believe me, I would not have made a spectacle of myself and would have eaten to my hearts content, like you and everyone else.

Sometimes it is best to make peace with ones enemies. Otherwise things can end up badly.
