“There is no piece of music that could relate to anything else but itself and its world. It is truly an independent. The one thing coplanar with music is the compositional aspect, the fact that you are composing something. Architecture is essentially a score, and what happens with it depends on the people who play it, enjoy it, use it, or hate it.” PeopleWorldPlayFactsUseHappensHateEnjoyPiecesOne ThingDependsMusic IsAspectIndependentArchitectureRelateScoreComposing Author:Rafael Vinoly

“The way financing for independent movies goes is great. You get the money from the guy who's actually doing the distribution in France. You say, "Do you want a piece of this movie?" And he's got to sell this movie to get his money back. That's the brains of it; that's the genius of this financing. "You want Germany? Give us a million dollars and you've got Germany."” WayWantGivingGuyBrainMillionsPiecesGeniusIndependentSellsDollarsFranceGermanyDistributionMillion DollarsFinancing Author:Bill Murray
“'Our parents' generation had it a lot tougher than we did.

“Odd as I am sure it will appear to some, I can think of no better form of personal involvement in the cure of the environment than that of gardening. A person who is growing a garden, if he is growing it organically, is improving a piece of the world. He is producing something to eat, which makes him somewhat independent of the grocery business, but he is also enlarging, for himself, the meaning of food and the pleasure of eating.” IfsThinkingWorldPersonsI CanFormPleasureEnvironmentPiecesGrowingEatingGardenIndependentCuresOddGardeningImprovingFarmingInvolvementGardenerGroceriesInspirational GardeningOrganic FarmingGrowing Food Author:Wendell Berry
