“The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive.

“it is photography itself that creates the illusion of innocence. its ironies of frozen narrative lend to its subjects an apparent unawareness that they will change or die. it is the future they are innocent of. fifty years on we look at them with the godly knowledge of how they turned out after all- who they married, the date of their death- with no thought for who will one day be holding photographs of us.”
-from the book black dogs by ian mcewan
“darkness as well as light. or do i mean darkness, another kind of light? lucifer would say so, and i have a weakness for fallen angels.” - jeanette winterson, art and lies

“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming “Wow! What a Ride!” - Hunter S Thompson
