Never trust an artist with a clean desk or a writer with a sober mind
You're not really a dancer if you don't smell a little somewhere and you're not an actor if your heart hasn't bleed on stage and you're not a musician if your just playing to pay the rent and we can tell the difference in the voice of your piano strings and drum skins all art has do be done from a deep maddening love that feels more like a sickness than a gift and give your all to love or don't waste anyone's time and don't get conned by a hallmark postage stamp worth of sentiment if its really love they will die to give you everything and come back from the dead knowing it would be a privilege to give you more because the true beauty of love lays in what is given freely without expectation of getting anything in return and the saddest thing you should know in this life is that the kinder and more beautiful you are the more often people will try to manipulate and take advantage of you so be cateful with your kindess and your beauty and your heartbreaks and though you can't always trust people you can always trust love
