“Don't ask why if you don't want to die. Do as you're told if you want to get old.”

“On days like today,
even if I see something that would
make a good picture,
I don't take it out of my pouch.
I take my time
as I walk...
here, between the sky above
and the earth
below...
Its rhythm follows
the pace of my
steps.
A song emerges from
my parted
lips.
As I look around at the world,
out from myself,
I continue walking.
But I carried on
my strange song and
dance
all the way home.
I never took out my camera.”
― Hitoshi Ashinano, ヨコハマ買い出し紀行 1 [Yokohama kaidashi kikō 1]

“I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by.”
