“Essentially, in photography, I think on two levels: one emotional and the other technical. The emotional impact has to do with looking for something dramatic happening in the photograph, something that reaches out and touches somebody in some way. And the technical is having to do with composition and framing - light and dark, light and shadow.” ThinkingWayTwoLightDarkLevelsEmotionalPhotographyHappeningsShadowImpactPhotographDramaticReach OutCompositionLight And DarkFramingLight And Shadow Author:Leonard Nimoy

“The climate system is constantly readjusting naturally in a large way - more than we would ever see from CO2. The CO2 kick [impact of CO2 emissions] is extremely small compared to what is happening in a natural way.

“There should be a name for this, for the process whereby one knows one is being yanked and concedes it has been done successfully - that one is grateful to have been spun. In the theater, it is called the willing suspension of disbelief. That's what allows the play to make an impact on the audience: they have to be able to make believe that what's happening on the stage is really happening. Maybe to a degree it is a requirement for all political participation, all effective political communication, too.” KnowsShouldBelieveHas BeensDonePlayAblePoliticalNamesProcessAudienceStageWillingCommunicationDegreesHappeningsTheaterGratefulImpactRequirementsParticipationDisbeliefMake BelieveSpunSuspensionSuspension Of DisbeliefPolitical Participation Author:Peggy Noonan

“I feel like it had an impact, in that it started the attention that has been paid to what was happening. It started to get us into this whole conversation about prison reform, the whole bipartisan dialogue that's been happening over the past five, six years about this, where you have a Van Jones and a Newt Gingrich, and you have the Rick Perrys and so forth getting up and talking about the need to reform.” NeedsFeelsYearsHas BeensWholePastAttentionTalkingFiveConversationSixHappeningsPaidImpactPrisonDialogueReformVansOver The PastBipartisanNewtsPrison Reform Author:Ava DuVernay
“There are so many issues that impact women. When we talk about prison reform, for example, women were [once] sterilized in women's prisons. When they were giving birth, they were asked to sign paperwork but they weren't even completely conscious of what they were signing. That sounds like something that would never happen in America, but it was happening, not just in America, but in [California], one of the most progressive states in the United States.” GivingStatesHappensAmericaSoundUnitedUnited StatesIssuesExampleBirthHappeningsConsciousImpactPrisonReformCaliforniaProgressiveLike SomethingSigningGiving BirthPaperworkPrison Reform Author:Patricia Arquette
