The universe allows you to be happy only when it is preparing to take something else away.

Jorge Luis Borges, in his early twenties, on the illusion of the self – his earliest published essay, a beautiful read.

Gareth Halliday Collage Art

Gareth Halliday aka @mozzplast is an emerging British collage artist.

His unorthodox career has taken an intriguing path since he graduated from the University of Northampton in 2000 with a degree in Visual Arts. After losing faith in the commercial art community the artist removed his work from the public eye and began working as a full-time postman, dabbling with the idea of developing personal projects on the side. It wasn’t until 2009 and years of reoccurring nightmares of arriving at his own exhibition to find nothing but one, lonely second-class postage stamp on display that Halliday decided to pursue creating art again. 

Talking about his work, Halliday denotes:

My work tries to capture and handle the mediated depictions of reality that are thrown at us from the mass media. Through the process of collecting and reassembling found and forgotten images I hope to create new compositions which are often subjective, as my own interpretations of the world around me.  via

Kim Jong Un Would Really Hate For You To Watch This, Which Is Exactly Why You Should

Virginia Woolf on the malady of middlebrow – her spectacularly scathing response to a patronizing reviewer.

Richard Dawkins explores the science of why you are oh-so-lucky to be alive – a mind-bending and wonderfully heartening read.

We highbrows, I agree, have to earn our livings; but when we have earned enough to live on, then we live. When the middlebrows, on the contrary, have earned enough to live on, they go on earning enough to buy.

Virginia Woolf on middlebrow – her brilliant letter to a patronizing reviewer, a masterwork of irony in the true literary sense of the word. (via explore-blog)
