the Mantra

"'I'm not going to settle for the ordinary...Or, rather, I want ordinary to have a new meaning. I want ordinary madness, ordinary orgies, I want sitting about 'til three talking politics to be ordinary, I want to be ordinarily surrounded with colourful, creative people who smoke too much, I want to live in extraordinarily beautiful and wild places with ordinary exotic men, leading a lavish life of ordinary decadence and excess."
