Photographers Unknown, “Ivan Rueda”, Photo Shoots
Himmlisch ist’s wenn ich bezwungen
Meine irdische Begier;
Aber doch wenn’s nich gelungen
Hatt’ ich auch recht huebsch Plaisir!
It is heavenly, when I overcome
My earthly desires
But nevertheless, when I’m not successful,
It can also be quite pleasurable.
-Leo Tolstoy, “Anna Karenina”, Published in Book Form in 1878
Photographer Unknown, (Thoughts)
“Man can be master of nothing while he fears death, but he who does not fear it possesses all. If there were no suffering, man would not know his limitations, would not know himself. The hardest thing is to be able in your soul to unite the meaning of all. To unite all? Pierre asked himself. “No, not to unite. Thoughts cannot be united, but to harness all these thoughts together is what we need! Yes, one must harness them, must harness them!”
