More From Maurice Blanchot

About 60% of the people stopped when we had 24 jams on display and then at the times when we had 6 different flavors of jam out on display only 40% of the people actually stopped, so more people were clearly attracted to the larger varieties of options, but then when it came down to buying, so the second thing we looked at is in what case were people more likely to buy a jar of jam. what we found was that of the people who stopped when there were 24 different flavors of jam out on display only 3% of them actually bought a jar of jam whereas of the people who stopped when there were 6 different flavors of jam 30% of them actually bought a jar of jam.

Explain! tell a man to explain how he dropped into hell! explain my preference! i never had a preference for her, any more than i have a preference for breathing. no other woman exists by the side of her. i would rather touch her hand if it were dead, than i would touch any other woman's living.

Music is my life. music runs through my veins. music inspires me. music is a part of me. music is all around us. music soothes me. music gives me hope when i lose faith. music comforts me. music is my refuge.
Inspirational Running Giving
When i am in a painting, i'm not aware of what i'm doing. it is only after a sort of 'get acquainted' period that i see what i have been about. i have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc, because the painting has a life of its own. i try to let it come through. it is only when i lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.
Giving Trying Etc
The painting is always done very much with [the model's] co-operation. the problem with painting a nude, of course, is that it deepens the transaction. you can scrap a painting of someone's face and it imperils the sitter's self-esteem less than scrapping a painting of the whole naked body.
