Skiing in heels, why not? 

“Squalid and moving stories, like that son of a bitch Salinger who..”Mario Conde - from the outstanding, simply lovely, brillant Cuban writer Leonardo Padura Fuentes. 

Otters have freaky fingers.

I dream of flying, no wings, no plane, just me.

Bare walls make me twitchy.

“Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates”, Tom Robbins....
There is something about novels with parrots.....

Sometimes I jut want to hear the paint glide.

Don’t sweat what you don’t know about art.

Live with art you will not regret it.

A moment to treasure-
“Lou and I sat on a bench,
leaning on each other
whispering & laughing.”
From a postcard I sent myself. 
We were in the Art Institute of Chicago. It was June 15, 2005.
Punch drunk, staring at “Bathers by a river” by Henri Matisse.

Ai Weiwei “the so called contemporary art is not a form but a philosophy of society”

Emma Thompson used the term “mind Bomb” to explain how she felt when she watched Hannah Gadsby performing “Nanette”.  I agree and I got it, irrevocably.

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing & rightdoing 
there is a field, I’ll meet you there.” Rumi
I’m not that magnanimous....

Sassy quotes from an incredible photographer, William Eggleston-

“A picture is what it is and I’ve never noticed that it helps to talk about them, or answer specific questions about them, much less volunteer information in words. It wouldn’t make any sense to explain them. Kind of diminishes them. People always want to know when something was taken, where it was taken, and, God knows, why it was taken. It gets really ridiculous. I mean, they’re right there, whatever they are.” 

“I never know beforehand. Until I see it. It just happens all at once. I take a picture very quickly and instantly forget about it.”
