It's sort of like a mockery in a way of reality because they think everything is smiles and sweetness and flowers when there is something bitter to taste. And to pretend there isn't is foolish. I mean the ones that wonder around and know, at the same time, and yet wear flowers, and they deserve to wear flowers. And they've earned their smile...you can tell by people's eyes.
Edie SedgwickHave you ever analyzed things to the degree where you canโt really remember the difference between whatโs real and what youโve created in your head?
Edie SedgwickI had fun, but I didn't really have anyone i particularly loved except for loving friends. But I have a certain amount of faith that it will come.
Edie SedgwickYou care enough, that you want your life to be fulfilled in a living way, not in a painting way, not in a writing way...you really do want it to be involving in living, corresponding with other living objects, moving, changing, that kind of thing.
Edie SedgwickI want to reach people and express myself. You have to put up with the risk of being misunderstood if you are going to try to communicate. You have to put up with people projecting their own ideas, attitudes, misunderstanding you. But itโs worth being a public fool if thatโs all you can be in order to communicate yourself.
