Random musings from the last sane madman.

Fear, Love & Loathing in New York City. A mix of my original photographs- with a seemingly random mashup of quotes, my original prose, re-blogs, lyrics, foodporn, nature, messing about in sailboats, cinegraphs & animated gifs. All from the heart... or the head. I haven't decided.

"I envied the people around me, hermetically sealed in their clothes and isolated from the tyranny of objects. They lived as prisoners under jackets and overcoats but nothing from the outside could terrorize and defeat them, nothing penetrated their wonderful prisons. 

Between the world and me there was no separation. Everything that surrounded me invaded me from head to toe as if my skin had been a sieve. My attentiveness—distracted at that—to the things that surrounded me, was not a simple act of will. The world naturally stretched all its tentacles toward me; I was crisscrossed by the thousand arms of the hydra. In exasperation I was forced to observe that I was living in the world that I saw. There was nothing more to be done about it." ~ Max Blecher, (1909-1938) "Occurrence in the Immediate Unreality"

“I am the unknowingness

of an unknown mystery.

If you want to know something,

go elsewhere.

If you want to un-know everything, then sit and listen.

The silence inside of you is the sound of your knowledge collapsing. Remember, it is you who said, ‘I want to be free.’ ”
