QUOTATIONS:

"We shape our buildings, and afterwards our buildings shape us." >Winston S. Churchill, October 28, 1943

"You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete." >R. Buckminster Fuller, Critical Path

"Goethe, who in speaking of Paganini hit on a definition of the duende: 'A mysterious force that everyone feels and no philosopher has explained.' So, then, the duende is a force not a labour, a struggle not a thought. I heard an old maestro of the guitar say: 'The duende is not in the throat: the duende surges up, inside, from the soles of the feet.' Meaning, it's not a question of skill, but of a style that's truly alive: meaning, it's in the veins: meaning, it's of the most ancient culture of immediate creation." >Garcia Lorca, Theory and Play Of The Duende

"The task of genius, and humanity is nothing if not genius, is to keep the miracle alive, to live always in the miracle, to make the miracle more and more miraculous, to swear allegiance to nothing, but live only miraculously, think only miraculously, die miraculously." >Henry Miller

"We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are." >Anais Nin

"You is must tell self of need for want truth." >Park St. Bridge, 1990
