“You never change things by fighting the existing reality.

Buckminster Fuller

Henri Cartier-Bresson

Henri Cartier-Bresson, The Mind's Eye: Writings on Photography and Photographers

Milan Kundera
“Oh lovers! be careful in those dangerous first days! once you've brought breakfast in bed you'll have to bring it forever, unless you want to be accused of lovelessness and betrayal.”
Milan Kundera, The Book of Laughter and Forgetting

Jostein Gaarder
“You can never know if a person forgives you when you wrong them. Therefore it is existentially important to you. It is a question you are intensely concerned with. Neither can you know whether a person loves you. It’s something you just have to believe or hope. But these things are more important to you than the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees.

Jostein Gaarder, Sophie's World: A Novel About the History of Philosophy

Allen Ginsberg
“Whoever controls the media, the

Allen Ginsberg
