Quality Quotes: I

This section is designed to repeat words that were once uttered and deemed worthy enough of recording down so that their wisdom and insight might spread, influencing and altering the minds that they meet.
Ideas can spread like fire.
Let us make some fire.

Today I start with perhaps not a monumental quote or life changing words, nonetheless, one that deserves to make it into this section.



To be in fashion
is out when
the new fashion
is in


Yes, this states something that we already know to be true, but it also in a simple, possibly amusing way, perhaps draws our attention to the ridiculousness of this trend. Some people will look at a person's hair cut and go "Oh that was so last year" and the same goes for fashion of clothes and even colour. If that person's hair cut was put 15 years back or 15 years forward it then maybe it would be trendy. How silly it all seems.

I cannot deny that we all judge people from their appearance, some more than others though, anyone who denies this is an all out liar. We judge people on age, on sex, on race and on fashion conciously and sub-conciously. It's what people choose to do with this that matters, to judge or to not, to see through the meaningles outer facade with as little preconception of a person as possible or to think that you can instantly look at a person and decipher:

What music they listen to

What clubs they go to

What films they watch

What shops they go to

What their political persuasion is

You can tell a man by his shoes?

I think not.
