About Me

Il mia carissima amica italiana, Alice, è venuta a visitare in montagna per un weekend...

My Interests

discipline in my craft and experiencing life. in other words. making sure I dont spill the oil from the spoon as I climb stairs and admire enchanting gardens and tapestries.Quotes:"the difference between life and the movies, is that a script has to make sense, and life doesn't.""My cow is not pretty, but it's pretty to me." - Lynch "Fortunately, somewhere between chance and mystery lies imagination, the only thing that protects our freedom, despite the fact that people keep trying to reduce it or kill it off altogether." -Bunuel "Dying is one of the things that can be done as easily lying down." - Woody Allen "I'm not afraid of death, I just don't want to be there when it happens." - Woody Allen "I have bad reflexes. I was once run over by a car being pushed by two guys." -Woody Allen "You can live to be a hundred if you give up all the things that make you want to live to be a hundred. " - Woody Allen "I think that the consciousness of passion makes you act very differently." -Almodovar "When i'm really close to you like this, i'm not the least bit scared. Nothing dark or eveil could ever tempt me." - norwegian wood "whenever i'm sad im going to die, or so nervous i can't sleep, or in love with someone i won't be seeing for a long time, i just slump down so far and say, I'm going to take a hot bath." - bell jar These things never happen, but they are always." - Piano Tuner of Earthquakes
