Printable Vintage Fashion Illustration for Collage, Graphic Design or Scrapbooking: Promenade Costumes and Shoes, 1892

I was the world in which I walked, and what I saw
Or heard or felt came not but from myself;
And there I found myself more truly and more strange.
― Wallace Stevens, The Collected Poems

If you cannot find a good companion to walk with, walk alone,
like an elephant roaming the jungle.
It is better to be alone than to be with those who will hinder your progress.
― Gautama Buddha, The Dhammapada

Printable Vintage Fashion Illustration for Collage, Graphic Design or Scrapbooking: Three Veiled Ladies, 1875

Quiet people always know more than they seem. Although very normal,
their inner world is by default fronted mysterious and therefore assumed weird.
Never underestimate the social awareness and sense of reality in a quiet person;
they are some of the most observant, absorbent persons of all.
― Criss Jami, Healology

Like the moon shining bright
Up high with all its grace,
I can only show you at night
And hide half of my face.
― Ana Claudia Antunes, Pierrot & Columbine
