Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
It looked like the world was covered in a cobbler crust of brown sugar and cinnamon.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
There are worse things than being alone but it often takes decades to realize this and most often when you do it's too late, and there's nothing worse than too late.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Um...is that thing tame?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Life, the relentless mechanism of existing isn't about you. It doesn't include you at all. It will thrust onward even after you're dead.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Until he extends his circle of compassion to include all living things, man will not himself find peace.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
And if you have no past or future which, after all, is all that the present is made of, why then you may as well dispose of the empty shell of present and commit suicide.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Happiness can be found in even the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
All art is quite useless.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
The silence depressed me. It wasn't the silence of silence. It was my own silence.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it. I want to become acutely aware of all I’ve taken for granted.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
The silence drew off, baring the pebbles and shells and all the tatty wreckage of my life.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Laughter is sunshine, it chases winter from the human face.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Heroism doesn't pay very well. I try to be cold-blooded and money-oriented, but I keep screwing it up.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Maybe forgetfulness, like a kind snow, should numb and cover them. But they were a part of me. They were my landscape.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
At times like this I'd call myself a fool to ask for more...
Frank Hendriks Photography:
When a new day begins, dare to smile gratefully. Dare to be the best you can – at all times, dare to be!
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Our educational system tells us that we can all be big-ass winners. It hasn't told us about the gutters or the suicides.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
It is not worth the bother of killing yourself, since you always kill yourself too late.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
And then, I have nature and art and poetry, and if that is not enough, what is enough?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I am a cage, in search of a bird.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I need solitude for my writing; not 'like a hermit' - that wouldn't be enough - but like a dead man.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
There is an infinite amount of hope in the universe ... but not for us.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
By believing passionately in something that still does not exist, we create it. The nonexistent is whatever we have not sufficiently desired.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Better to have, and not need, than to need, and not have.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Those who are willing to be vulnerable move among mysteries.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Remember: the time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself. Life's cruelest irony.
