Duane Michals // "It is no accident that you are reading this. I am making black marks on white paper. These marks are my thoughts, and although I do not know who you are reading this now, in some way the lines of our lives have intersected... For the length of these few sentences, we meet here. It is no accident that you are reading this. This moment has been waiting for you, I have been waiting for you. Remember me."
Thich Nhat Hanh // "Breathe. You are alive."
Stephen Fry // "I used to touch my own chest and feel...the engine of the heart and lungs and blood and feel amazed at...the enormity of the power I possessed. Not magical power, but real power. The power simply to go on, the power to endure...that is power enough. But I felt I had also the power to create, to add...to amaze and to transform."
Carolina Herrera // "In life, there should be a little mystery."
Salvador Dali // "But I very early realized, instinctively, my life formula: to get others to accept as natural the excesses of one's personality an thus to relieve oneself of his own anxieties by creating a sort of collective participation."
Marcel Proust // "My destination is no longer a place, rather a new way of seeing."
Rinus Van de Velde // "When I look at pictures, I start inhabiting them. I think up a story...fantasize about what it would be like to be inside of them."
Haskell Wexler // "Be interested in life. Be a person. Be in touch."
Pablo Picasso // "It took me a lifetime."
Kate Moss // "Never complain. Never explain."
Eckhart Tolle // "Prejudice of any kind...means you don't see the other human being anymore, but only your own concept of that human being. To reduce the aliveness of another human being to a concept is already a form of violence."
Diane von Furstenberg // "The girls who were unanimously beautiful often rested on their beauty alone. I felt I had to do things, to be intelligent and develop a personality in order to seem as attractive. By the time I realized maybe I wasn't plain and might even possibly be pretty, I had already trained myself to be a little more interesting and informed."
