Piper Perish Quotes

“I love painting. I love drawing. I’m never let down, even when the picture isn’t exactly what I want. I can keep working on it. Paintings speak back. They argue. But it’s just because they still want attention. They aren’t done yet.

They want to keep the relationships alive. And when they break your heart, it’s only because they’re that good, not because they’re bad. Bad art can be fixed or transformed. But bad people? Bad choices? I think they’re with us forever.”

“Verliefd worden moet je eigenlijk met je ogen dicht doen". - Andy Warhol

Helemaal mee eens. Dan hoef je degene die je leven heeft verwoest niet steeds voor je te zien.”

“Slechte kunst kan veranderd worden, getransformeerd worden tot iets goeds. Maar slechte mensen? Of slechte beslissingen?

Volgens mij zijn die nooit meer goed te maken.”

“I'm a big fan of failing. Failing can be the best thing that happens to an artist...but the failure has to be from the trying, the creating, the process, the product. Failing from not trying, from not creating, isn't just passive and annoying, it's sad. It's destruction. It's not using your life. Failing from TRYING, though, can be so much more interesting than success. Don't you think? Failure is where we learn. What would we learn if everybody got everything right the first time?”

“High school, this day, your graduation—it's all important. But I don't want you to think of this as the end, Piper. This is truly just the beginning for you. Some students see high school as the finish line. When times get tough, it may seem easy to think that, too. But don't. Stay open and brave to the big world. Grow. Move. Expand. Always create. Always be the present you, not the past you. Be now. Then be now. Be now, now, now.”
