Albert Einstein // "When we survey our lives...we soon observe that almost the whole of our actions and desires are bound up with the existence of other human beings... We eat food that others have grown, wear clothes that others have made, live in houses that others have built. The greater part of our knowledge and beliefs has been communicated to us by other people through...language which others have created. Without language our mental capacities would be poor indeed... The individual, if left alone from birth would remain primitive and beast-like in his thoughts and feelings to a degree that we can hardly conceive. The individual is what he is and has the significance that he has, not so much in virtue of his individuality, but rather as a member of a great human society..."
Yohji Yamamoto // "Fashion cannot make you sexy. Experience makes you sexy. Imagination makes people sexy. You have to train yourself, you have to study, and you have to live your life."
Leonard Cohen // "We are so lightly here. It is in love we are made. In love we disappear."
Winona Ryder // "Sometimes, the only way to stay sane is to go a little crazy."
James Baldwin // "These are all our children. We will profit by, or pay for, whatever they become."
Leonardo DiCaprio // "My dad always told me, 'Go out there...and whatever you do, I don't care if you're successful or not, just have an interesting life. Just be happy to put your pants on in the morning.' I believe I'm doing that."
Jorge Luis Borges // "For me, beauty is a physical sensation, something we feel with our whole body. It is not the result of judgement. We do not arrive at it by way of rules. We either feel beauty or we don't."
Rei Kawakubo // "It would have more meaning for me to hear what critics have to say if their values and their ways of living were deeper and more serious."
Hermann Hesse // "Sensitive persons find our inartistic manner of existence oppressive and painful, and they withdraw from sight... I believe what we lack is joy...the conception of life as a happy thing, as a festival... But the high value put upon every minute of time, the idea of hurry-hurry as the most important objective of living, is unquestionably the most dangerous enemy of joy."
Matthias Schoenaerts // "I do not like talking about effort, because I work with pleasure. I wanted to do it, so it’s not an effort. Even if I put in a lot of work, it is not an effort. It’s love."
Bob Marley // "The people who are trying to make this world worse are not taking a day off. Why should I?"
Robert Mapplethorpe // "I’m looking for the unexpected. I’m looking for things I’ve never seen before."
