“Out of the closets and into the museums, libraries, architectural monuments, concert halls, bookstores, recording studios and film studios of the world. Everything belongs to the inspired and dedicated thief…. Words, colors, light, sounds, stone, wood, bronze belong to the living artist. They belong to anyone who can use them. Loot the Louvre!

― William Burroughs

“Silence is only frightening to people who are compulsively verbalizing.”

“It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.”
― E.E. Cummings
