There is an almost quaint correlation between what is in front of our eyes and the thoughts we are able to have in our heads. The mind may be reluctant to think properly when thinking is all it is supposed to do.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Do you believe that Mary was really a virgin? Do you believe that Moses really parted the sea? And if you don’t believe in miracles, tell me - how would you explain the miracle of my life to me?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
My main goal is to stay alive. To keep fooling myself into hanging around. I must keep myself going until I find a reason to live. On the other hand maybe I don't. Maybe it's all bullshit. Nothing I knew from my old life can help me here.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I know I am a fool, hoping dirt and glory are both a kind of luminous paint; the humiliations and exaltations that light us up. I see like a bug, everything too large, the pressure of infinity hammering at my head.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Sometimes you've got to do what you've got to do, and then sometimes you've just got to run like hell after it's done.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
What a weary time today - to have the desire and the need to live but not the ability.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
We are born, we grow up, we are indoctrinated in the classrooms and in the jobs, we pay our taxes, and we reproduce. Then we get old, get sick and die. I don't like this story.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I see the future. It is there, poised over the street, hardly more dim than the present. What advantage will accrue from its realisation?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
You dole out little treats to yourself - slices of ice-cream cake. And then, every once in a while, you wake up and gaze out of the window at another bloody daybreak, and think, I cannot do this anymore.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Every day was like a day out of someone else's life. Nothing had ever happened to me, and now everything was happening to me - and by everything, I really meant everything.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
If the inevitability of human oblivion worries you, I encourage you to ignore it.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Before we can radically reshape the world, we need to shop.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
That corpse you planted last year in your garden, has it begun to sprout?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
There are so many fragile things, after all. People break so easily, and so do dreams and hearts.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
We leave something of ourselves behind when we leave a place, we stay there, even though we go away. And there are things in us that we can find again only by going back there.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Hit me with those green eyes, baby, as the lights go down, Give me somethin' that'll haunt me when you're not around; Cause I see sparks fly whenever you ... smile.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
There are certain qualities of light that blur the years.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
If you ever reach enlightenment will you remember how to laugh?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I'm that complicated, mysterious, yet content with the "simple" things in life. Don't try to understand me; you won't figure me out. But you're free to like me the way I am.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I am alone in the midst of these happy, reasonable voices. All these creatures spend their time explaining, realizing happily that they agree with each other. In Heaven's name, why is it so important to think the same things all together.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
At sea, you come across plenty of people very bad indeed, whole boat-loads of them; but I never met a man yet, on land, who had ever known at all what it was to be sea-sick.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Let’s watch out for the unpredictability and the wildcat jumps of contrarian people, whose sole interests are soaring targets at high-speed, at all costs and without any consideration.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
We are all victims. Our destinies are decided by a cosmic roll of the dice, the winds of the stars, the vagrant breezes of fortune that blow from the windmills of the gods.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I'm learning skills I will use for the rest of my life by doing homework...procrastinating and negotiation.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
All that we have is that shout into the wind - how we live. How we go. And how we stand before we fall.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
You just use the future to escape the present.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
It is the business of the very few to be independent; it is a privilege of the strong.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
My day just isn't complete without something trying to kill me.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice. And she said 'We are all just prisoners here, of our own device.'
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplaceable spark in the hopeless swamps of the not-quite, the not-yet, and the not-at-all.
