Because when one can control things, one is limited to one's own vision." - Kiki Smith

“The other peoples of the world are not failed attempts at being you.” - Wade Davis ❤️
"We created a culture of ‘pleasing’ that is now hijacking us. We want to please everybody: the audiences, the subscribers, the sponsors, the press, the colleagues… a big mistake! Art should not please. On the contrary. Art has to show where it hurts in our societies, in our world. We urgently need the courage back to pick up this role of disturbers again.” - Frie Leysen
"It’s not to anybody’s best interest to think about how they will be perceived tomorrow. It hurts you in the long run.” - Bob Dylan
"A riot is the language of the unheard." - Martin Luther 

"Dance is the hidden language of nature's soul." - Martha Graham

"Non-doing has nothing to do with being indolent or passive. Quite the contrary. It takes great courage and energy to cultivate non-doing, both in stillness and in activity. Nor is it easy to make a special time for non-doing and to keep at it in the face of everything in our lives which needs to be done.” - Jon Kabat-Zinn
"There is no waste of time in life like that of making explanations.” - Benjamin Disraeli
