Charlie Chaplin // "How does one get ideas? By sheer perseverance to the point of madness."

Nick Cave // "The lovely thing about the unsayable is that it is unsaid. As soon as it is said, it is sayable and loses all its mystery and ambiguity. Art exists so that the unsayable can be said without having to actually say it. We cloud it in secrecy and obfuscation. The mind is free to roam and all things can be imagined, under the cover of darkness. How nice that is. The unsayable. How tired we are of having things explained to us. Having things said. How nice it is when people just shut the fuck up."

Charles Bukowski // "Of course, anything can kill you and something eventually will. All I can say is that today I have just inserted a new typewriter ribbon into this old machine and I am pleased with the way it works. That makes for more than just an ordinary day, thank you."

Photo of Madonna

Madonna // "We are all responsible for our actions, our behavior, and our words, and we must take responsibility for everything we say and do. When you get your head wrapped around that, you can no longer think of life as a series of random events—you participate in life in a way you didn't previously. I am an architect of my destiny. I am in charge. I bring that to me, or I push it away. You can no longer blame other people for things that happened to you."

Albert Camus // "Life can be magnificent and overwhelming...that is the whole tragedy. Without beauty, love, or danger it would almost be easy to live."

Michael Jackson // "Human knowledge consists not only of libraries of parchment and ink...it is also comprised of the volumes of knowledge that are written on the human heart, chiseled on the human soul, and engraved on the human psyche."
