“The fundamental aspect of video is not the image, even though you can stand in amazement at what can be done electronically, how images can be manipulated and the really extraordinary creative possibilities. For me the essential basis of video is the movement - something that exists at the moment and changes in the next moment.” DoneMomentsNextCreativeMovementPossibilityEssentialsAspectBasesFundamentalsExtraordinaryVideoAmazement Author:Bill Viola
“Writing those books ['Beauty' and 'Style']was really eye-opening, as you realize just how much goes into beauty and fashion, and also how much I've learned over the years. I think both books are essential, as they don't really teach you one particular look that will go out of style next season, but rather tools and tricks you can use over the years.” ThinkingWritingYearsLooksBookUseEyeNextRealizingTeachFashionStyleParticularEssentialsToolsSeasonsTricksOpeningI've LearnedEye OpeningFashion And Beauty Author:Lauren Conrad
“Your eyes, accustomed to semi-darkness, will soon open to more radiant visions of light. The shadows which we shall paint shall be more luminous than the high-lights of our predecessors, and our pictures, next to those of the museums, will shine like blinding daylight, compared with deepest night. We conclude that painting cannot exist today without divisionism... ...Divisionism, for the modern painter, must be an innate complementariness which we declare to be essential and necessary.” LightEyeTodayNightNextVisionDarknessModernPaintingEssentialsShadowShiningPaintPainterMuseumsAccustomedInnateDaylightLuminousRadiantPredecessors Author:Umberto Boccioni

“Yes, we know more than ever before, and it's a wonder that we get to inhabit a world full of driverless cars and 3D printers. But that doesn't mean that we know any more about the essential things in life - love, faith, death - and it would be dangerous to assume we did. The only thing that gets us through sometimes is a proper, humbled sense that we don't have a clue, we can't be sure what's going to happen next and life will always be much larger than our ideas of it.” KnowsWorldMeanIdeasSometimesHappensWould BeNextWonderDangerousCarEssentialsAssumingLove LifeThings In LifeCluePrinterFaith In Love Author:Pico Iyer
“I have learned from experience that happiness is an acquired skill. Children are one of the greatest lessons in happiness, constantly challenging us to enjoy the moment, as the next one will not be the same. Gratitude is essential to happiness. Every time our children rush up to us and smile, we have something to be happy about; every time we get out of bed and can take a deep breath and go out for a walk, we have something to be happy about-that is the essence of a happy existence. Happiness is a muscle we must use, or it will wither away.” ChildrenMomentsUseHappinessNextEnjoyChallengesWalksExistenceGratitudeLessonsBedSkillsEssentialsEssenceBreathsOur ChildrenMusclesI Have LearnedDeep BreathThe Next OneTake A Deep Breath Author:Marianne Williamson
