Fill your heart with secrets but the only way to read them is if you break your heart.




It’s a lie. It’s a bunch of sad strangers photographed beautifully, and... all the glittering assholes who appreciate art say it’s beautiful ‘cause that’s what they wanna see. But the people in the photos are sad, and alone... But the pictures make the world seem beautiful, so... the exhibition is reassuring which makes it a lie, and everyone loves a big fat lie. - Closer (2004) 
The stalks of these flowers are already dried up, but their blossoms are preserved and kept fresh by the medical infusion bags. The life-span of every living creature is limited. The infusion bags stand for the progress in medicine and the prolongation of human life. They somehow carry an ambivalent message as they refer to both death and life the same time. To preserve the beauty of the flowers artifically with the help of the infusion bags points out man’s inclination to repress the fact that he has to die and to postpone death.
I loved the moods I was creating just for myself and by myself.Lana Del Rey, interviewed by Nylon magazine



- Well, let’s say that since you were little, you always dreamed of getting a lion. And you wait, and you wait, and you wait, and you wait but the lion doesn’t come. And along comes a giraffe. You can be alone, or you can be with the giraffe.
- I’d wait for the lion.
- That’s why I worry about you.


“I did not want to think so much about her. I wanted to take her as an unexpected, delightful gift, that had come and would go again — nothing more. I meant not to give room to the thought that it could ever be more. I knew too well that all love has the desire for eternity and that therein lies its eternal torment. Nothing lasts. Nothing.” – Erich Maria Remarque


Tavi: When you read the book, what resonated with you? Because it’s a lot about feeling kind of locked up at home in the suburbs—that’s where the characters are. And I think your life must have been somewhat different. Were you just kind of fascinated by them? Or was there something that you related to about that feeling of being kind of closed in?
Sofia Coppola: I can’t remember, it was so long ago! [Laughs] But I loved [Jeffrey Eugenides’s] writing, and I felt like I could be there with [the Lisbon sisters]. I really loved how the boys were looking at the girls and the girls had this kind of power and mystique over them. I think when you’re that age you’re kind of playing with that power, and trying to understand it. I liked how the girls were playing with the boys confusion about them, and also how girls could get stuck in lives that were too small or confining for them.
– Sofia Coppola on The Virgin Suicides, interviewed by Rookie Mag
