I hate quotations
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson


Unlike my pal Ralph, who I love to quote, I love quotes....
I am a quotaholic!
Sometimes a photo will bring to mind a quote that fits perfectly...
Other times a quote will inspire me to find a photo for it.
In this case it was the latter situation!


I have to admit to having a certain fascination with the multiple masks that some people hide behind throughout their lives.
It always makes me wonder what they are afraid of, when they began to wear the masks and why...
Leonard Cohen, Billy Joel and Jann Arden, amongst other poets and musicians, refer to the masks in their words...


I have a collection of masks at my front door.
Their display was intended to be a tongue in cheek reference to the masks people wear...
as if I chose a mask to wear each day, along with my scarf or hat or coat


...so when I read this particular quote I chose one that I felt fit and SNAP!!


Here is the result...
