"In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary." ~Aaron Rose


"While there is
perhaps
a province

in which the photograph
can tell us nothing more
than what we see with our own eyes,
there is another
in which it proves to us
how little our eyes permit us to see."

~Dorothea Lange

"I have always
a sacred veneration
for anyone I observe
to be
a little out of repair in his person,

"When I grow up I want to be a little boy." ~Joseph Heller


"Sometimes
I feel that life is passing me by,
not slowly either,
but with ropes
of steam and spark-spattered wheels
and a hoarse roar of power or terror.
It's passing,
yet
I'm the one who's doing all the moving."

~Martin Amis

"The most beautiful thing
we can experience is the mysterious.
It is the source
of all true art and science.
He to whom the emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer pause and stand wrapped in awe,
is as good as dead;
his eyes are closed."

~Albert Einstein

"Let the world
know you as you are,
not as you think you should be,
because
sooner or later,
if you are posing,
you will forget the pose,
and then where are you?"

"I arise in the morning
torn between a desire to improve the world
and a desire to enjoy the world.
This makes it hard to plan the day."
