-One Head, Two Necks + Three Hands

Reject reality + substitute your own. 

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.  -Lao Tzu

Surrealism had a great effect on me because then I realised that the imagery in my mind wasn't insanity. Surrealism to me is reality.  -John Lennon

Reality is a sliding door.  -R. Waldo Emerson

Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.  -Albert Einstein

    Life's evening will take its character from the day that preceded it.~Phillip Nicolas Shuttleworth(1782-1842)

    Surrealism is destructive, but it destroys only what it considers to be shackles limiting our vision. Salvador Dali.

    I love that picture. So much is determined before we are born.
