Quotes by Veronica Bale (?)

“Salman Rushdie said, "A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return."

So if someone tells me I've written something that's historically inaccurate, I can just tell them, "Salman Rushdie said I could." :)”

“It is a cruel, ironical art, photography. The dragging of captured moments into the future; moments that should have been allowed to be evaporate into the past; should exist only in memories, glimpsed through the fog of events that came after. Photographs force us to see people before their future weighed them down....”
