finding another way to communicate yourself, create yourself (20 April 2016)




I want to reach people and express myself. You have to put up with the risk of being misunderstood if you are going to try to communicate. You have to put up with people projecting their own ideas, attitudes, misunderstanding you. But it’s worth being a public fool if that’s all you can be in order to communicate yourself.
- Edie Sedgwick

You live alone, creating your life as you go.

It's not that I'm rebelling. It's that I'm just trying to find another way.
- Edie Sedgwick




Happiness is to have a little string onto which things will attach themselves.

- Monday 20 April 1925 (Virginia Woolf, Moments of Being)
