At home | Fernando Pessoa
Diane Arbus, Nancy Bellamy’s Bedroom, N.Y.C.,1961
“A cup of coffee, a cigarette, the penetrating aroma of its smoke, myself sitting in a shadowy room
with eyes half-closed…I want no more from life than my dreams and this…It doesn’t seem much?
I don’t know. What do I know about what is little and what is a lot?”
with eyes half-closed…I want no more from life than my dreams and this…It doesn’t seem much?
