“If I hear dance music, my body starts to move. Whatever the dance music is, I can't help it. With all that, I still felt, well, rock is a little higher art, but it wasn't. Right now, because I have so much experience with dance charts, I started to realize that it's incredible art. This is going to be known one day as high art.” IfsWellsLittlesArtStillsI CanHelpingBodyMovingFeltRealizingKnownRocksHigherRight NowOne DayMusic IsIncrediblesDance MusicHigh Art Author:Yoko Ono

“The emotions of the spectator will still be very apt to fall short of the violence of what is felt by the sufferer.

“I myself, for instance, am not especially gifted, and am shy by nature, but my gracious and merciful God and Father inclined Himself to me, and when I was weak in faith He strengthened me while I was still young.

“I think that when you go on a shamanic journey, you're allowing yourself to have much more access to your unconscious or your sense of connection within the universe, whatever you want to call that. You've accessed places in your brain that you don't normally. You're still there - it's your brain. But you have access in a way that you normally don't. For me, doing that felt like being in a new environment.” ThinkingWayWantStillsUniverseFeltBrainEnvironmentJourneyGoes OnConnectionsAccessUnconsciousAllowingNew Environment Author:Amy Hardie
“I wanted to make a film about anorexia. I thought about it for a long time, but then gave up on this idea as I felt that this theme would be so hermetic and closed that it would not reach an audience.

“Sometimes I felt lonely because I pushed people away for so long that I honestly didn't have many close connections left. I was physically isolated and disconnected from the world. Sometimes I felt lonely in a crowded room. This kind of loneliness pierced my soul and ached to the core. I not only felt disconnected from the world, but I also felt like no one ever loved me. Intellectually, I knew that people did, but I still felt that way.” PeopleWorldWayKindLongStillsSoulSometimesLeftFeltRoomsLonelinessLonelyConnectionsHonestlyCoreMy SoulIsolatedCrowdedDisconnected Author:Jenni Schaefer
