development discourse - quote 1


"In order for someone to conceive the possibility of escaping from a particular condition, it is necessary first to feel that one has fallen into that condition. For those who make up two-third of the world’s population today, to think of development … requires first the perception of themselves as underdeveloped, with the whole burden of connotations that this carries." -

ask the dust - john fante


this is charles bukowski`s favorite author - the one who made him the writer he was - & i cannot grasp why i have waited so long to open one of his books. but its good. real good. so good in fact that im not sure why i am writing about it here, when i really should be heading to the nearest cafe to finish off the remaining chapters...

"out of my mind; back in five minutes"


too bad i dont wear bracelets otherwise i`d get this one in a heartbeat. the bracelets from jessica kagan cushman also come with some other fitting slogans like "frankly, my dear, i dont give a damn" or "you can agree with me or you can be wrong." how true!
