“A drone strike is a terror weapon, we don't talk about it that way. It is; just imagine you are walking down the street and you don't know whether in 5 minutes there is going to be an explosion across the street from some place up in the sky that you can't see. Somebody will be killed, and whoever is around will be killed, maybe you'll be injured if you're there. That is a terror weapon. It terrorizes villages, regions, huge areas. It's the most massive terror campaign going on by a long shot.” IfsKnowsWayLongImagineSkyStreetsMinutesHugeWalkingWeaponsShotsAreasTerrorStrikesCampaignsRegionsMassiveVillageSocialistExplosionsInjuredDronesLinguistsLong Shots Author:Noam Chomsky
“I'm interested in the murky areas where there are no clear answers - or sometimes multiple answers. It's here that I try to imagine patterns or codes to make sense of the unknowns that keep us up at night.

“The same areas which are active in listening to music are also active when you imagine music, and this includes the motor areas, too.

“If you can imagine the area and the land in Cambodia, I mean there are hardly any roads in big parts of the country. The roads they have, in the rainy season, become just mud. So, if you’re somebody that has just one leg, or blind with no arms and you have children and you’re trying to work, and earn some money, and take care of your home, it’s hard enough to be a parent and do all of that normally.” IfsTryingMeanChildrenCountryHardEnoughHomeBigsCareParentImagineLandArmsAreasSeasonsBlindLegsTake CareJust OneMudRainyCambodiaRainy Season Author:Angelina Jolie
“I feel it's my social responsibility to shine a light on areas that don't get seen. My personal feeling is that it's an artist's responsibility to be engaged with the culture. And when the culture is going through turmoil, I think an artist can't ignore that. I don't feel that every artist has to be politically engaged, but I can't imagine that you can be an active participant of this culture and not in some way reflect that in the work you are creating.” ThinkingWayFeelsI CanFeelingsLightArtistCultureSocialResponsibilityImagineCreatingAreasShiningActiveEngagedImagine ThatSocial ResponsibilityTurmoilParticipantsPersonal Feelings Author:Lynn Nottage
“The increasing presence of cloud computing and mobile smart phones is driving the digitization of everything across both consumer and enterprise domains.

“When considering the truth of a proposition, one is either engaged in an honest appraisal of the evidence and logical arguments, or one isn't.

“Rory: "People are being serious." Jazza: "There's a serial killer out there. Of course people are being serious." Rory: "Yeah, but what are the chances?" Jazza: "I bet all of the victims thought that." Rory: "But still, what are the chances?" Jazza: "Well, I imagine they are several million to one." Jerome: "Not that high. You're only dealing with a small part of London. And while there might be a million or more people in that area, the Ripper is probably focusing on women, because all of the original victims were women. So halve that--" Jazza: "You really need another hobby.” PeopleNeedsWellsStillsMightCoursesChanceMillionsImagineSeriousAreasOriginalsVictimYeahLondonKillersHobbiesSerialsSmall PartsSerial Killer Author:Maureen Johnson
“I imagine a future where many of us will call ourselves dancers and collaborate to make an art which concerns itself with primary areas of life... for me, peace is a communal work process, a collective vision. The dance itself tries to exemplify a few of these methods in a truly grounded and practical way so that the people can say: yes, there are prospects of survival.” PeopleWayTryingArtProcessVisionImagineSurvivalAreasConcernMethodDancePracticalsPrimariesDancerCollectivesGroundedProspects Author:Anna Halprin
