“London is like a dream come true. As I ramble through it I am haunted by the curious feeling of something half-forgotten, but still dimly remembered, like a reminiscence of some previous state of existence. It is at once familiar and strange.” StillsStatesFeelingsDreamExistenceHalfStrangeForgottenLondonFamiliarCuriousRememberedDreams Come True Book:Preaching in London: A Diary of Anglo-American Friendship Source: Preaching in London: A Diary of Anglo-American Friendship
“In Dreams...well, I was slightly overcompensating with that. I was a bit like a director for hire, so maybe I was putting too much imagery that was familiar to me into it.” WellsDreamBitsToo MuchDirectorsFamiliarImageryOvercompensating Author:Neil Jordan
“I think the point of cinematography, of what we do, is intimacy. Is intent, is the balance between the familiar and the dream, it is being subjective and objective, it is being engaged and yet standing back and noticing something that perhaps other people didn’t notice before, or celebrating something that you feel is beautiful or valid, or true or engaging in some way.” PeopleThinkingWayFeelsDreamBeautifulBalanceStandingObjectivesFamiliarCelebrateIntimacyEngagedEngagingSubjectiveNoticingCinematography Author:Christopher Doyle
“In dreams you can have the feeling that you've had this dream before, that you have this dream over and over again, and you know that it's really nothing that simple. You know that there's a whole underground system that you call 'dreams,' having nothing better to call them, and that this system is not like roads or tunnels but more like a live body network, all coiling and stretching, unpredictable but finally familiar - where you are now, where you've always been.” KnowsWholeFeelingsDreamBodySimpleFamiliarWhere You AreUnpredictableTunnelsStretching Book:Friend of my youth: stories Source: Friend of my youth: stories
