Albert Camus
“I opened myself to the gentle indifference of the world.”
Albert Camus, L'Étranger

Friedrich Nietzsche
“He who has a why to live for can bear almost any how.”
Friedrich Nietzsche

David  Lynch
“I don't know why people expect art to make sense. They accept the fact that life doesn't make sense.”
David Lynch

Brian Eno
“Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit - all of these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided. It’s the sound of failure: so much modern art is the sound of things going out of control, of a medium pushing to its limits and breaking apart. The distorted guitar sound is the sound of something too loud for the medium supposed to carry it. The blues singer with the cracked voice is the sound of an emotional cry too powerful for the throat that releases it. The excitement of grainy film, of bleached-out black and white, is the excitement of witnessing events too momentous for the medium assigned to record them.”
Brian Eno, A Year With Swollen Appendices

“We are like the spider.
We weave our life and then move along in it.
We are like the dreamer who dreams and then lives in the dream.”
Upanishads
