    "I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche

    Jerry, a belated birthday wish of the best things to come. Loved the interview, so witty and wicked. Looking forward to the next one!

    ah, hair is so overrated. Green eyes, now that's all the rage. There's a screwdriver always and a train ticket for you at the tracks. Next stop: 1948.

    thanks lovely peeps x

    For those who believe,
    no explanation is necessary.
    For those who do not,
    none will suffice.
