Lillian Fishman
“Openness and sincerity were prized above all else under a governing practice of radical tolerance, in which speaking about anything at all could yield only benefit and in which secrets could develop only into shameful wounds.”
Lillian Fishman, Acts of Service

Haruki Murakami
“And we live quietly so as not to hurt one another.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

“That's what I feel so often in painting. I mean I know exactly what I want to do, but I can't find the way in which this thing can be made. I want a deeply ordered image, you see, but I want it to come about by chance. You can always hope that the paint will do more for you, but mostly it's like painting a wall when the very first brushstroke you do gives a sudden shock of reality that is cancelled out as you paint the whole surface.”
Michael Peppiatt, Francis Bacon in Your Blood

Lillian Fishman
“How can a body be safe when it's only a body? How can we expect that no stranger will be tempted to torch an empty house?”
Lillian Fishman, Acts of Service

Haruki Murakami
“Each scene felt unreal and strangely distant, as though I were viewing it through two or three layers of glass, but the events had undoubtedly happened to me.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
