influence

is mary-kate and ashley's new book. they interviewed some of the artists who inspired them and compiled these interviews with photos and images. i found myself reading interview after interview and being inspired by their words of wisdom.

a few quotes i liked:

You know, the most important thing I can tell you about creativity is to try to think originally. And try to look into yourself to find things. They're not outside. 
-Peter Lindbergh

Life is about giving. It's a luxury to give. And even if people take advantage of you a little bit, it's okay. 
-Diane von Furstenberg

Blood is a very magical juice. 
-Goethe

by the way, i like the jacket photography by rankin.
