About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Mountain Idiot

ABOUT ME

I love music, photography, travelling, having fun with friends and a lot of other stuff. It sounds so stupid and meaningless. This profile isn't a reflection of who i am yet

-How old are you?
...
-You don't know for sure?
I'm sure about the number but not about the feel of each succeeding year.
(lucas samaras)

PHILOSOPHY

Right now,
Vi Veri Universum Vivus Vici
-Faust

If everything is worth money, then money is worth nothing.

Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken - Oscar Wilde

Life's but a walking shadow,
A poor player,
that struths and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more;
it is a tale told by an idiot,
Full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
-Shakespeare- Make something of it!

The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

I Dream a lot,
But I'm not a very good sleeper - Micheal Gondry

Wabi-Sabi (japanese philosophy) 'nothing is perfect, nothing lasts, and nothing is finished'

Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius, and it is better to absolutely ridiculus than absolutely boring.
Marilyn Monroe
