There is always some reason in madness.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
So long to the era of mist and carbonized Newcastle coal, to the stench of the Blackfriars foundry. Welcome to the cleasing glare of the twentieth century.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I was drawn to all the wrong things: I liked to drink, I was lazy, I didn't have a god, politics, ideas, ideals.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Home is a notion that only nations of the homeless fully appreciate and only the uprooted comprehend.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn't matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough.

God save us from people who mean well.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Sometimes you have to seize it when it’s kicking and screaming.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I hid in bars, because I didn't want to hide in factories.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Sometimes I feel so - I don’t know - lonely. The kind of helpless feeling when everything you’re used to has been ripped away.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
In a way the philosopher and the barber are of the same guild; the barber cuts hair and the philosopher splits hairs.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. This is the most basic kind of peace work.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
You want to touch the heavens, you want to feel glory and euphoria. You can't buy it, you can't get it on a street corner, you can't steal it or inject it or shove it up your ass, you have to earn it.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
So far today, I've had a bowl of muesli. I feel as if I've been gnawing on lumber.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Today I know “THAT IS LIFE".
Frank Hendriks Photography:
It calms me down right away, the quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I am the centre of everything surrounded by the great nothing.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I suddenly realise that it doesn't matter how far I go, or how lost I am, or how lonely I feel. I fit in here. I always will.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
We are all a little damaged. Some of us more than others.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
This is where it all begins. Everything starts here, today.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
We're all made of stories. When they finally put us underground, the stories are what will go on. Not forever, perhaps, but for a time. It's a kind of immortality, I suppose, bounded by limits, it's true, but then so's everything.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I was in the mood to go to sleep for fifty years, wake up as an old man and live out my life in a nursing home with my only excitement being Friday Night Bingo.

Decide whether you want to be liked or admired. Decide if fitting in is more important than finding out what you’re doing here.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Not one day in anyone’s life is an uneventful day, no day without profound meaning, no matter how dull and boring it might seem.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
I drink to make other people more interesting.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
It was in the nature of bridges to be dark, but this one was special. Also I didn't know if was going forward or back, my feet seemingly playing tricks with me.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Think outside the box, collapse the box, and take a fucking sharp knife to it.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
This is a world where everybody’s gotta do something. I just get tired of thinking of all the things that I don’t wanna do. All the things that I don’t wanna be. Places I don’t wanna go, like India, like getting my teeth cleaned.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
The dark is generous. Its first gift is concealment. Its second gift is comforting illusion. Day is the illusion.
Frank Hendriks Photography:
Art is what gets us beyond what is real. It makes reality more real.
