"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched — they must be felt with the heart."
"The cosmos is also within us, we're made of star-stuff. We are a way for the cosmos, to know itself"
"I admire people with gentle manners who treat other people as human beings.”
"Do you think human creativity matters? Well, most people don’t spend a lot of time thinking about poetry, right? They have a life to live and they’re really not that concerned with Allen Ginsberg’s poems or anyone’s poems—until, their father dies; they go to a funeral; you lose a child; someone breaks your heart. And all of a sudden you’re desperate for making sense out of this life. ‘Has anybody felt this bad before? How did they come out of this cloud?’ Or the inverse—something great. You meet somebody and your heart explodes—you love them so much you can’t even see straight. You’re dizzy. ‘Did anybody feel like this before? What is happening to me?’ And that’s when art’s not a luxury—it’s actually sustenance. We need it.”
"what is art if it's not love."
Okay I think I'm rambling too much, I have too many quotes that make me feel something, share some of yours with me too!
