“Part of me wishes some of the more obsessive fans would spend a fraction of the time (they spend studying the band) on politics,”
Dave Matthews
“A single conversation across the table with a wise person is worth a month's study of books”
Chinese Proverbs
“I wish I had something like it to teach adverbs and fractions.”
Nancy Lynch
“We spend, on average, a couple of hundred thousand dollars an episode, which is a fraction of what the networks spend on dramas, ... We sort of look at these documentaries as cable's version of the drama.”
Jeff Gaspin
“To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis.”
Henri Cartier-Bresson
“The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism. Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.”
Camille Paglia
“The happiness of life is made up of minute fractions - the little, soon forgotten charities of a kiss or a smile, a kind look or heartfelt compliment.”
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
