Alleviating the hustle of systematic survival by means of monetary wealth is the artist’s greatest illusion of success. Your music, your poems, your paintings have the mark of the beast. Of the privilege. The assumption that living is somehow without art. Ever. The great deception. There is an…

Funkology: "If you're going to try, go all the way"
“If you’re going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don’t even start.
This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It…

Sherod Santos: My going to Paris was prompted by a number of things, some related to writing, some not. It was an unhappy period, and I felt like leaving everything behind and starting all over again — the kind of thing, I fear, my background made all too easy to do. Looking back on it now, I…

MELODY EH$ANI is not her history: NOBILITY
I think its so important for people to see the nobility in what they do. I remember working towards law school, and loving art, but always feeling like it was more suitable as a hobby. I thought that in order to have an impact on the world and make money, I had to go into a field that was credible…

He’ll be cross if he sees I have been crying. They don’t like you to...@dreamhampton :
He’ll be cross if he sees I have been crying. They don’t like you to cry. He doesn’t cry. I wish to God I could make him cry. I wish I could make him cry and tread the floor and feel his heart heavy and big and festering in him. I wish I could hurt him like hell.
He doesn’t wish that about me. I don’t think he even knows how he makes me feel. I wish he could know, without my telling him. They don’t like you to tell them they’ve made you cry. They don’t like you to tell them you’re unhappy because of them. If you do, they think you’re possessive and exacting. And then they hate you. They hate you whenever you say anything you really think. You always have to keep playing little games. Oh, I thought we didn’t have to; I thought this was so big I could say whatever I meant. I guess you can’t, ever. I guess there isn’t ever anything big enough for that.
