Marilyn Monroe // "If I'd observed all the rules, I'd never have gotten anywhere." --------------------------------------------------------- 🎉👯 30,000 of you!! Thank you for following!!
José Saramago // "Deep down, I don't create anything. I'm just someone who simply lifts a rock and exposes what's beneath it."
Toni Morrison // "Definitions belong to the definers, not the defined."
Jim Jarmusch // "Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent."
Georges Perec // "What we need to question is...concrete, glass, our table manners, our utensils, our tools, the way we spend our time, our rhythms. To question that which seems to have ceased forever to astonish us. We live...we breathe...we walk...we sit at a table in order to eat, we lie down on a bed in order to sleep. How? Where? When? Why?"
Marlene Dietrich // "Nobody would gossip if no one listens."
Mary Oliver // "Instructions for living a life: Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it."
Claude Monet // "I am completely absorbed by my work. These landscapes of water and reflections have become my obsession. They are beyond the strength of an old man, and yet I am determined to set down what I feel. I have destroyed some...I have begun others over again...and I hope that something will come of so much effort."
Isabelle Adjani // "I've learned that to expose yourself, to reveal yourself is a test of your humanness. You must take the risk to disclose yourself in order to become more real, more human."
Edith Sitwell // "Eccentricity is not, as dull people would have us believe, a form of madness."
Freddie Mercury // "We're seeking perfection, even if we know it's virtually impossible to find...We are meticulous. It drives some...guys mad, but we want everything to be as good as it can..."
E.E. Cummings // "Remember one thing only: that it's you...nobody else...who determines your destiny and decides your fate. Nobody else can be alive for you, nor can you be alive for anyone else."
