    More Good Minds Suggest…
    Marilyn Monroe
    “ I don't mind being burdened with being glamorous and sexual. Beauty and femininity are ageless and can't be contrived, and glamour, although the manufacturers won't like this, cannot be manufactured. Not real glamour; it's based on femininity. ”
    ― Marilyn Monroe

    Chuck Klosterman
    “ Art and love are the same thing: It’s the process of seeing yourself in things that are not you. ”
    ― Chuck Klosterman, Killing Yourself to Live: 85% of a True Story
