We construct a self-portrait, relying on existing objects – books, quotes from authors and artists, images, art – that we are more than happy to show off to others for them to use as masturbation material or for the material by which they align themselves. This is the new action painting – the curational archive. The referential self portrait. The portrait of any other artist could be readily used to explain yourself, just reblog it and caption it with “same.” The past consistently becomes the present, not through linear time, but through the constant reconstruction and relabeling of it.","author":"Gabby Bess","tags":["identity","self","tumblr"],"id":35187,"author_id":"Gabby+Bess"},{"text":"I’m an author. We don’t want to lead. We don’t need to follow. We stay home and make stuff up and write it down and send it out into the world, and get inside people’s heads. Perhaps we change the world and perhaps we don’t. We never know. We just make stuff up.","author":"Neil Gaiman","tags":["books","creativity","gaiman","neil-gaiman","tumblr","writing","writing-advice","writing-books","writing-life"],"id":64982,"author_id":"Neil+Gaiman"},{"text":"I've come to realize that love is tragic, somewhere down the line it's inevitable.

After all, every author waits to be discovered by someone. Anyone. And so I found myself smack bang in the middle of the mad hatters head, and as someone put it, Tumblr might actually be worse than that. But yes, futilely, I was attempting to discover the elusive origin of my words by tracing back notes until I came across my quote right next to a selfie of a stripper, or hooker, with a fox tail butt plug... And that was when I stopped.","author":"Dimitri Zaik","tags":["hooker","quote","stripper","tumblr","writer"],"id":96878,"author_id":"Dimitri+Zaik"},{"text":"Your beauty is tragic.It is the sweetest sin,Heaven ever created!","author":"Shillpi S Banerrji","tags":["beauty","best-motivational","goodreads-","goodreads","love","to-live-by","shillpisbanerrji","tragic","tumblr"],"id":101301,"author_id":"Shillpi+S+Banerrji"},{"text":"I am constantly torn between the will to be seen and still hidden so god damn well, a contradiction I never figured out.","author":"Charlotte Eriksson","tags":["be-seen","contradiction","find-yourself","growing-up","hidden","identity","lit","literature","myself","mystery","prose","prose-poetry","quote","the-glass-child","tumblr","young","youth"],"id":103574,"author_id":"Charlotte+Eriksson"},{"text":"I always wonder why birds stay in the same place when they can fly anywhere on the earth.
