[wordsnquotes]

You cannot convince people to love you. This is an absolute rule. No one will ever give you love because you want him or her to give it. Real love moves freely in both directions. Don’t waste your time on anything else.

Cheryl Strayed, Tiny Beautiful Things (via wordsnquotes)

Legendary artist Pablo Picasso was born 136 years ago today on Oct. 25, 1881 in Málaga, Spain. He is pictured here in 1949 painting a centaur with light. This photo was featured in the Jan. 30, 1950 SPEAKING OF PICTURES… feature in LIFE magazine. According to LIFE, “The striking photographs on these pages, taken by Gjon Mili, show Picasso’s latest and certainly most spectacular medium—drawing in blacked-out space with a flashlight. The idea was suggested by Mili, who got Picasso interested by showing him photographs of trails of light made by Skater Carol Lynne stunting with flashlights on her toes.” (Gjon Mili—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #LIFElegends #GjonMili #Picasso

132 black cats lined up to audition for the title character in Edgar Allen Poe’s 1843 short story The Black Cat in 1961. In the story, the cat’s owner plasters him into a wall, along with his murdered wife. Eventually, the animal’s mewing from beyond the grave leads investigators to the woman’s body. The film adaptation, which would appear in the 1962 horror compilation Tales of Terror, adjusted the storyline by weaving in elements of another Poe tale. During the audition, the owners took care not to let the black cats cross their path. (Ralph Crane—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #superstitions #FridayThe13th #blackcats #tbt

Hazel Scott playing two pianos at the same damn time with ease

[erinbowbooks]

Hazel Scott was a musical sorcerer and a civil rights hero.   She:

 was admitted to Julliard at 8.  

was performing in top venues by 16.  

pioneered “swinging the classics” and made the equivalent of a million dollars a year doing it.  

was the first person of color to have their own national TV show.  

went to Hollywood but refused to be cast as a “singing maid.”  Demanded and got control over her casting, her wardrobe, and how footage featuring her was cut.  

refused to perform in segregated venues and led charges for integration in several northern cities, notably Spokane.  

She was brought down by the House Committee on Unamerican Activities, and has been largely forgotten.  But she was a sorcerer, and a hero.
