Life ... is never the way one imagines it. It surprises you, it amazes you, and it makes you laugh or cry when you don't expect it.

I was shooting at myself - I was shooting my own violence and the violence of the times

Music is the softest cushion in the world.

- Niki De Saint Phalle

I love the round, the curves, the undulation, the world is round, the world is a breast
