QUOTE / UNQUOTE[roberto benigni] C’est beau de croire au soleil pendant la nuit. On a le devoir du bonheur, d’être heureux. On doit essayer. Avoir le droit de crier la vie est belle.[ Erykah Badu ] I don't think there are seven deadly sins, there is just one: fear. Fear is the foundation of all negativity in the world. Where there is fear, there is discontent. Where there is fear, there is jealousy, disloyalty, hate, anger. When you are afraid, love is absent.[ Melaaz ] Si l’amour est ton seule remède, il faut alors suivre les règles: pas faire souffrir, ne jamais trahir, pour le plaisir…[ Marlon Brando ] The more sensitive you are, the more certain you are to be brutalized, develop scars, never evolve. Never allow yourself to feel anything, because you always feel too much.[ Goldie ] Time is irrelevant. What’s important is the time you share with people and the energy you can exchange with them.[ Leon Ware ] Every man that wakes up in the morning wakes up to magnify the other. The whole purpose for being here is to magnify your best qualities, to see all the rich possibilities you have in your space.[ Jamie Lidell ] Maturing is learning to communicate, perhaps, when you are in a good mood. If you phone (someone) up, and you are in a bad mood, they jump into this world of panic with you. I’d rather just call share good news.[ Reginald Dennis ] We have to find life where we can, and live in and for the moment every day of our lives. If we don’t, then we are committing the worst of crimes : wasting time. And time is the only thing you can’t buy or get back or re-create. We only get one shot at this. No mistakes allowed.[ Marvin Gaye ] You know what bothers me ? It bothers me tremendously to see us sit around and look at the people virtually destroying us, and pretending that it’s okay. I cannot understand how we human beings can let a few powerful men in the world treat us like cattle, and insensitive people, and robots. We’re programmed, we’re sensitized, we’re Big Brothered, and we’re police stated. We have no fight; we seem apathetic. It’s horrible. I don’t see why so many people in the world are allowing a few men to destroy our civilization…Stand up and say, "we people who love to live the simple life, who love the sun and the air and the birds and the bees, whom you people don’t seem to have any regard for…" Somewhere, somehow, it has to be stopped, or we’re gonna all be destroyed and very soon, perhaps in my lifetime.[ Henry Miller ] We are all guilty of crime : the great crime of not living life to the full. But we are all potentially free. We can stop thinking of what we have failed to do and do whatever lies within our power. What those powers that are in us may be, no one has truly dared to imagine. That they are infinite, we will realise the day we admit to ourselves that imagination is everything. Imagination is the voice of daring.Music is a beautiful opiate, if you don't take it too seriously.Develop interest in life as you see it: in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.[Anaïs Nin ] Both the artist and the child create an inner world ruled by their fantasies or dreams. They do not understand the world of money, or the pursuit of power. They create without commercial intent. They rebel against existing conditions. They cannot be deceived. The realistic world for them is ruled by conscious compromises, self-betrayels, selling out.Even intellectually, I do not like wrestling matches, I do not like talk marathons, I do not like arguments, or struggles to convert others. I seek harmony. If it is not there, I move away.[ Calvin Coolidge ] Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not ; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not ; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not ; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.[ Henry Miller ] One shouldn't slave to make words explode like firecrackers, in conformance to the ballistic regulations of inebriated semanticists. It is enough and more to stretch, yawn, wheeze, fart and whinny. Rules are for barbarians, technic for the troglodytes.[ Charles Bukowski ] The important thing is the obvious thing that nobody is saying.You can't always be the man, says [ Twista ], but you can be the man of the moment. You just gotta keep making moments.[ Minnie Riperton ] It’s so hard for me to tell if this is just desire, or the love I need to make my spirit whole..[ Charles Mingus ] Life is a desire not a meaning. The pulse is inside you.Charles Mingus had a rhythmic concept that he called [ rotary perception ]. He described drawing a circle around the beat. Anyone in the ensemble was free to play within this circle. At any point, a new circle could be drawn redefining the center point of the beat. This creates a migration of the downbeat to a different part of the bar, producing a distinctive groove and feeling.[ Jean-Luc Godard ] Pourquoi faire simple quand on peut faire compliqué.Travailler « seul en poête », c’est supplier un patron de te donner de l’argent pour faire un chef d’--uvre. Le drame des fonctionnaires, c'est l’auteur qui veut posséder son langage à lui tout seul, qui l’étudie tout seul, sans écouter son voisin. Mais, si tu n’as pas de voisin, tu ne peux plus rien dire..[ Robert Reisner ] Bird (Charlie Parker) was a neurotic, but the great strides in art are not made by happy well-adjusted people. Art is a form of sublimation and is created by neurotics and compulsion-ridden people.[ Jean Baudrillard ] Truth is born of disillusion. The real is born of lack of imagination.Art dies with inbreeding.This is not unlike the story of mad-cow disease and the animal feeds - live animals being made to eat pulverized dead ones.(...) practices such as surfing the Web, the Internet and all the rest - incestuous niches where everyone ends up geared to the same software and the same programmes, obeying the same technical and mental imperative.[ Matthew Carcieri on Prince ] Hip hop had set a new standard for innovation–one that directly opposed Prince’s worldview. Hip hop had its mind on the street, while Prince had his head in the clouds. Hip hop was an Afro-centric movement, while Prince lived in Uptown. Hip hop was a culture of conformity–a fraternal order with uniforms- and Prince and his independent style didn’t belong. Hip hop emphasized aggressive beats and attitudes over Prince’s seductive nuance (…).[ Gerald Early ] What frightens the trained musician is the idea that someone who is an « amateur » can make music successfully simply by understanding music not as an art, nor as a highly complex set of techniques or an elaboration of rules, but rather as a series of effects and gimmicks that can be manipulated by anyone with an ear and some imagination.[ Harry Shapiro ] Unlike the writer, the painter or the sculptor, the musician cannot reach the pinnacles of artistic fulfilment in private. This can only be achieved in the recording studio surrounded by other musicians and technicians or standing on a concert stage (...). And for that to happen, musicians have to sail the shark-infested waters of the music business. Through long term contracts, advances against royalties and the universal truth that 'he who pays the piper calls the tune', the record companies generally hold their musicians in thrall (...).And it isn't only the companies; at every turn somebody is waiting to screw you - managers, agents, promoters and music publishers. (...) Musicians (especially black musicians) have been systematically cheated out of millions of pounds in royalties (...) Not surprisingly, this causes much resentment and anguish in private, where some musicians give vent to their personal view that these games constitute a cynical process of manipulation. (...) As a performing artist, the musician can get trapped between an audience whom he often regards as lacking understanding and critical judgement, and the industry with which he has to work but which has entirely different goals.[ Joao Ubaldo Ribeiro – het huis van de gelukkige boeddha’s ] Achterlijk, achterlijk, we leven volgens regels en normen waarvoor geen enkele mens geschapen is en het is nogal wiedes dat we daar stapelgek van worden. (…) dat fabeltje dat je vriendschap niet mag vermengen met seks is flauwekul, het is juist omgekeerd. Met iemand vrijen zou een gebaar van vriendschap moeten zijn, iets wat die vriendschap aanvult en verdiept en niet verpest.[ Robert Bresson – notes sur le cinématographe ] Déséquilibrer pour rééquilibrer.La faculté de bien me servir de mes moyens diminue lorsque leur nombre augmente.Metteur en scène ou director. Il ne s’agit pas de diriger quelqu’un, mais de diriger soi-même.Attraper des instants. Spontanéité, fraîcheur. Un son trop attendu ne paraîtra jamais juste, même s’il l’est.Ne cours pas après la poésie. Elle pénètre toute seule par les jointures (ellipses).Que ce soit les sentiments qui amènent les événements. Non l’inverse.Corot : « Il ne faut pas chercher, il faut attendre.»Quand tu ne sais pas ce que tu fais et que ce que tu fais est le meilleur, c’est cela l’inspiration.Communiquer des impressions, des sensations.Préfère ce que te souffle l’intuition à ce que tu as fait et refait dix fois dans ta tête.[ Pierre Citron ] Once the mind is open the feet will groove to a different beat too no matter what street you live in or what corner your hustle is on let by-gones be by-gones move on remember the things you say may cause dismay trust me this I know I’ve been there much to my dismay sometimes I rhyme with flair sometimes I run scared wait now let me get this clear living in fear is living a life unfulfilled so don’t go searching for cheap thrills or wait for that lifelong dream to come true see impatience will kill delirious experience but presently debating too long seriously hesitating waiting for destiny or faith ain’t the thing to do neither so no time for faking it’s all about giving and taking these words ain’t hollow just follow the leader ride the wave like a believer and if by chance you missed a chance cos it passed you by on the first try the first high don’t cry over spilled milk you know Rome wasn’t built in a day so now you know why they say you can dust it off and try again a door once closed can be opened again if you’re making the effort it means it must be worthwhile to do so my friend love is not sex and passion no sin don’t play with resistance keep some emotional distance gentle persistence’s the key if you really wanna be free forget insecurity the family tree is natural as evolution we’re all human beings beautifully fly no matter the lingo colour or size enjoy and appreciate the inner peace vibe live life in the moment understand to overstand the balance in your desires many ways to get higher believe or try bottom line people make the world go round and round like space and time gives birth to a sensible rhyme. $
