Tantum religio potuit suadere malorum.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
You see, I want a lot. Perhaps I want everything.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Even in the mud and scum of things, something always, always sings.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I thought how unpleasant it is to be locked out; and I thought how it is worse, perhaps, to be locked in.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Wouldn’t it be great to stop, if only for a minute on a regular basis, and reflect on how wonderful everything is?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Have I not...just been...saying so?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Everything is more beautiful in the rain.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I am a forest, and a night of dark trees: but he who is not afraid of my darkness, will find banks full of roses under my cypresses.

Look for God, suggests my Guru. Look for God like a man with his head on fire looks for water.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
You cling to the happiest accidents - the rest you let float by.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Anyone who tells you size doesn't matter has been seeing too many small knives.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don't be afraid of it or of what other people think of it. It's the greatest instrument you'll ever own.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Sometimes no length of string is long enough to say the thing that needs to be said. In such cases all the string can do, in whatever its form, is conduct a person’s silence.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I have it in me so much nearer home to scare myself with my own desert places.

Our eyes, locked together, speak more naked truths than our mouths ever have.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I am gone quite mad with the knowledge of accepting the overwhelming number of things I can never know, places I can never go, and people I can never be.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Are you in touch with all of your darkest fantasies?
Frank Hendriks Photography:
It all flowed over me with a screaming ache of pain... remember, remember, this is now, and now, and now. Live it, feel it, cling to it.

Frank Hendriks Photography:
Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself. So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.
