“You cannot hammer a girl into anything. She grows as a flower does, she will wither without sun; she will decay in her sheath as a narcissus will if you do not give her air enough; she might fall and defile her head in dust if you leave her without help at some moments in her life; but you cannot fetter her; she must take her own fair form and way if she take any.” IfsWayGivingDoeEnoughMomentsHelpingMightFormFallGirlGrowsGrowthSunAirFlowerFairsDustDecayHammersFettersNarcissus Book:Essays and Letters Selected from the Writings of John Ruskin Source: Essays and Letters Selected from the Writings of John Ruskin
“Yes, Philadelphia is horrible, but in a very interesting way. There were places there that had been allowed to decay, where there was so much fear and crime that just for a moment there was an opening to another world. It was fear, but it was so strong, and so magical, like a magnet, that your imagination was always sparking in PhiladelphiaI just have to think of Philadelphia now, and I get ideas, I hear the wind, and I'm off into the darkness somewhere.” ThinkingWorldWayIdeasMomentsStrongImaginationInterestingDarknessCrimeWindHorribleOpeningDecayVery InterestingAnother WorldPhiladelphiaMagnetInteresting WaysSparking Author:David Lynch
“André Bazin wrote that art emerged from our desire to counter the passage of time and the inevitable decay it brings. But in “Boyhood,” Mr. Linklater's masterpiece, he both captures moments in time and relinquishes them as he moves from year to year. He isn't fighting time but embracing it in all its glorious and agonizingly fleeting beauty.” YearsArtMomentsMovingDesireFightingInevitableGloriousCapturePassagesDecayMasterpieceFleetingMoments In TimePassage Of TimeBoyhood Author:Manohla Dargis
