Diana Vreeland // "A little bad taste is like a nice splash of paprika. We all need a splash of bad taste—it’s hearty, it’s healthy, it’s physical. I think we could use more of it. No taste is what I’m against."
Kurt Cobain // "Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are."

Oprah Winfrey // "When I look into the future, it's so bright it burns my eyes."
