“While I pride myself on trying to be creative in all areas of my life, I have occasionally gone overboard, like the time I decided to bring to a party a salad that I constructed, on a huge rattan platter, to look like a miniature scale model of the Gardens of Babylon.” TryingLooksPartyGoneCreativeHugePrideModelsAreasGardenDecidedScalesBe CreativeSaladMiniaturesOverboardBabylon Author:Gregory Maguire

“Things can change if the military can do a paradigm shift and gets out of the shame and coverup cycle and be a leader in our culture. In the 50s, 60s and 70s there were huge race problems in the military even more severe than the culture at large. The military saw it was detrimental and it changed and became a model to society at large.” IfsProblemCultureCan DoRaceLeaderSawsMilitaryChangedHugeModelsShameCyclesSevereParadigmDetrimentalParadigm Shift Author:Amy Ziering
“America has always been the most fertile ground for models - and they were always exported to other countries. When Eastern Europe opened up its doors to the rest of the world, a lot of the girls that were basically working there for $1 a month realized that if they were beautiful and that they could go to Paris and work for $1,000 a day versus the $10,000 that the other girls were demanding. So it created a huge imbalance in the financial structure of how clients could budget out campaigns.

“As the popular trust in science fades - and many sociologists say that's happening today - people will develop a distrust of purely "scientific" psychology. Researchers in the universities haven't picked up on this; they're more interested in genetics and computer models of thinking than ever. But, in general, there is a huge distrust of the scientific establishment now.” PeopleThinkingTodayPsychologyHavensHugeComputerModelsHappeningsUniversityEstablishmentFadesDistrustGeneticsResearchersSociologists Author:James Hillman

“It became a question of taste. I have a certain taste in art history. And that - I had a huge library of art history books in my studio.

“I often think that the reason capitalism hasn't completely destroyed everything is that a huge amount of anti-capitalist endeavor goes on, from labors of love, nurture, friendship, and barter to gift economies and different kinds of exchanges, not just one alternate model but a whole host of other ways in which we engage with each other and with the world that aren't financial and debt-based.” ThinkingWorldWayKindDifferentReasonWholeEconomyHugeGoes OnAmountModelsCapitalismLaborFinancialDebtDestroyedJust OneEndeavorHostCapitalistDifferent KindsNurtureLabor Of Love Author:Rebecca Solnit
