"You know I'm bad at this. You know I don't like things to be complicated. I like to go about my day simply, doing the things I need to do. I like to think, I like to analyze, I like to wonder. I'm good at these things -- they make sense; I like things that make sense. But when you ask me how I'm doing, when you wait patiently for an answer,when you listen attentively to the cracks in my voice, you're asking me to feel. Don't do that. Just go about your day like everyone else - asking without really wanting to know. Don't tell me you genuinely care; please don't ask me to feel.
You know that I can take care of myself. You know that I will always be the last to need someone. I like to be there for others because it's so much easier to give than to be the one in need. It is pride, it is an overestimation of security and strength. But it's all I've ever known."

About Me

- "Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery—celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Godard said: 'It’s not where you take things from—it’s where you take them to.'" - Jim Jarmusch
