Live fast.

Pero entonces bailaban por las calles como peonzas enloquecidas . y yo vacilaba tras ellos como he estado haciendo toda mi vida mientras sigo a gente que me interesa, porque la única gente que me interesa es la que está loca, la gente que está loca por vivir, loca por hablar, loca por salvarse, con ganas de todo al mismo tiempo, la gente que nunca bosteza ni habla de lugares comunes, sino que arde, arde como fabulosos cohetes amarillos explotando igual que arañas entre las estrellas y entonces se ve estallar una luz azul y todo el mundo suelta un "¡Ahhh!"

"Mi madre me enseñó a mantenerme ergida, a sentarme derecha, a ser disciplinada con el vino y los dulces, y a fumar sólo seis cigarrillos al día."

Cambridge was too suffocating for Edie. She had some oppotunities in New York- that's the way I understood it. Bright lights! Hit the big town there and pick up your heels and have fun! She wanted to kick out and do some things. She wanted to be in a bigger space, and New York offered a bigger space for her. Everybody knew Edie. That was mortifying for me. "You're Edie's sister? You're Edie's sister?" Edie's sister... Edie this, Edie that, Edie everywhere. She was famous. Cambridge was too small for her. SUKY SEDGWICK

She felt that Cambridge were "not enough". New York had a real night life. It was a natural migration.

I helped her pack and drove har to New York in her Mercedes-Benz. The car was completely filled with mismatched luggage, boxes. parcels, and such miscellaneous objects as stuffed animals, straw baskets, and a large collection of unpacked hats. Her visibility may have been bad with all that lugage, but that was typical of Edie's kind of vagueness.

I think her idea was to model in New York . Much of that summer of 1964 she went to a salon where they literally pounded her legs into shape. Her legs were not good in those days -piano legs- but by the time the course was over she ended up with those legs that were so famously beautiful. GORDON BALDWIN
