Gramophone-me!

-Were we reborn? -I don't think that happened. -We weren't? -We weren't, we're the same. -OK, great.

“Be a fool. For love. For yourself. What you think might possibly make you happy - even for a little while - whatever the cost or good sense might dictate.”

When longing to disappear, I take one-day trips. I walk, eat, and let my mind wander.

“Did you know that the human voice is the only pure instrument? That it has notes no other instrument has? It’s like being between the keys of a piano. The notes are there, you can sing them, but they can’t be found on any instrument. That’s like me. I live in between this. I live in both worlds, the black and white world. I am Nina Simone, the star, and I am not here. I’m a woman. My secret self is between these worlds.“
