“Sometimes you know you did well but fail the subject, whereas you pass other subjects where you do not feel fully competent.”
Donman Phongmahung
“Bores can be divided into two classes; those who have their own particular subject, and those who do not need a subject.”
A. A. Milne
“I will be as harsh as truth, and as uncompromising as justice. On this subject, I do not wish to think, or speak, or write, with moderation. No! no! Tell a man whose house is on fire, to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hand of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen; -- but urge me not to use moderation in a cause like the present. I am in earnest -- I will not equivocate -- I will not excuse -- I will not retreat a single inch -- AND I WILL BE HEARD.”
William Lloyd Garrison
“The subject no longer has to be mentioned by name. Someone is sick. Someone else is feeling better now. A friend has just gone back into the hospital. Another has died. The unspoken name, of course, is AIDS.”
David W. Dunlap
“I do not paint a portrait to look like the subject, rather does the person grow to look like his portrait.”
Salvador Dalí
“Do not talk a little on many subjects, but much on a few.”
Pythagoras
“I search for the realness, the real feeling of a subject, all the texture around it ... I always want to see the third dimension of something ... I want to come alive with the object.”
Andrew Wyeth
