Frank O'Hara
“I can't even enjoy a blade of grass unless I know there's a subway handy, or a record store or some other sign that people do not totally regret life. It's more important to confirm the least sincere. The clouds get enough attention as it is...”
Frank O'Hara

Mary Robison
“You know, up until later on today, I never really knew how to drink.”
Mary Robison, One D.O.A., One on the Way

Franz Kafka
“A book must be the axe for the frozen sea within us.”
Franz Kafka

Diana Vreeland
“I adore fringe.”
Diana Vreeland

Frank O'Hara
“Poem (Lana Turner has collapsed!)

Lana Turner has collapsed!
I was trotting along and suddenly
it started raining and snowing
and you said it was hailing
but hailing hits you on the head
hard so it was really snowing and
raining and I was in such a hurry
to meet you but the traffic
was acting exactly like the sky
and suddenly I see a headline
LANA TURNER HAS COLLAPSED!
there is no snow in Hollywood
there is no rain in California
I have been to lots of parties
and acted perfectly disgraceful
but I never actually collapsed
oh Lana Turner we love you get up”
Frank O'Hara
