I made a mask out of my face because I didn't realize I was quite beautiful. God blessed me so. I practically destroyed it. I had to wear heavy black eyelashes like bat wings, and dark lines under my eyes, and cut all my hair off, my long dark hair. Cut it off and strip it silver and blonde. All those little maneuvers I did out of things that were happening in my life that upset me.
Edie SedgwickWhy do people stop developing, or, like they stop the way you can rate their, psychologically, their development? Where they stop, and just from being children to maybe stopping at a very adolescent age, and they stay there until they die. Physically die. I mean, they react adolescently. They don't change. They don't develop. They don't โ it's that continual read, that process which is is the total threat for the ego.
Edie SedgwickIf all I cared about was me, I could make a million. And that's what they will never understand.
Edie SedgwickI think drugs are like strawberries and peaches..Thereโs no way to tell anyone who hasnโt been through it, thereโs no way to explain it to anyone who hasnโt tasted it . To keep that superlative high, just on the cusp of each day, so that I radiate sunshine
