More From Robert Mapplethorpe

I wasn't involved in anything. i wasn't out - you know, i know i wasn't in act up. i wasn't with larry kramer. i wasn't by his side. i wasn't saying what i should do, because, by all accounts, i was a drug addict and an alcoholic. and i was living in a complete bubble of self-absorption.
Self Drug Sides
The universe was a silly place at best...but the least likely explanation for it was the no-explanation of random chance, the conceit that abstract somethings 'just happened' to be atoms that 'just happened' to get together in ways which 'just happened' to look like consistent laws and some configurations 'just happened' to possess self-awareness and that two 'just happened' to be the man from mars and a bald-headed old coot with jubal inside.

I write a song to be recorded. and to some extent to be performed, but definitely more to be recorded than performed, because the recording will last longer than a performance.
Song Writing Lasts
I recorded harp first or singing first. i recorded it all together. part of the reason is that i don't know how to play the songs without also singing. i forget how they progress. i don't think that any of them are verse, chorus, verse, and so on. they are not simple.
Song Simple Thinking
Not all that is presented to us as history has really happened; and what really happened did not actually happen the way it is presented to us; moreover, what really happened is only a small part of all that happened. everything in history remains uncertain, the largest events as well as the smallest occurrence.
History Events Way
Had the holocaust happened in tahiti or the congo, as it has; had it happened in south america, as it has; had it happened in the west indies, as it has - you must remember that within fifty years of columbus's arrival, only the bones remained of the people called the arawaks, with one or two of them in spain as specimens. had the holocaust committed under the nazis happened somewhere else, we wouldn't be talking about it the way we talk about it.

Look for me in the whirlwind or the storm, look for me all around you, for, with god's grace, i shall come and bring with me countless millions of black slaves who have died in america and the west indies and the millions in africa to aid you in the fight for liberty, freedom and life.

One of the bibles of my youth was 'birds of the west indies,' by james bond, a well-known ornithologist, and when i was casting about for a name for my protagonist i thought, 'my god, that's the dullest name i've ever heard,' so i appropriated it. now the dullest name in the world has become an exciting one.

What signifies philosophy that does not apply to some use? may we not learn from hence, that black clothes are not so fit to wear in a hot sunny climate or season, as white ones; because in such cloaths the body is more heated by the sun when we walk abroad, and are at the same time heated by the exercise, which double heat is apt to bring on putrid dangerous fevers? the soldiers and seamen, who must march and labour in the sun, should in the east or west indies have an uniform of white?
