“I've never felt that I was doing something for my people, except what I could to bring the accomplishments of the old ones to the attention of the world. I think the Northwest Coast style of art is an absolutely unique product, one of the crowning achievements of the whole human experience. I just don't want the whole thing swept under the carpet without someone paying attention to it.” PeopleThinkingWorldWantHumansArtWholeFeltAttentionStyleProductsAchievementUniqueArt IsRecognitionPay AttentionAccomplishmentCoastHuman ExperienceCarpet Author:Bill Reid
“[T]he effects of general change [in literature] are most tellingly recorded not in alteration of the best products, but in the transformation of the most ordinary workaday books; for when potboilers adopt the new style, then the revolution is complete.” BookLiteratureEffectsStyleProductsRevolutionOrdinaryTransformationAlterations Author:Stephen Jay Gould
“In all these products, whether iron bridges, locomotives, automobiles, telescopes, cottages, airport-hangars, funicular railways, skyscrapers, or children's toys, the will towards a new style expresses itself. The similarity of these examples to the new creations in art consists in the same striving for clear, pure form which expresses truth in the objects.” ChildrenArtFormClearStyleExampleCreationObjectsProductsPureStriveBridgesIronToysAirportsAutomobileSimilarityTelescopesCottagesRailwaySkyscraperLocomotives Author:Theo van Doesburg

“McWorld is a product of popular culture driven by expansionist commerce. Its template is American, its form style. Its goods are as much images as matériel, an aesthetic as well as a product line. It is about culture as commodity, apparel as ideology. Its symbols are Harley-Davidson motorcycles and Cadillac motorcars hoisted from the roadways, where they once represented a mode of transportation, to the marquees of global market cafés like Harley-Davidson's and the Hard Rock where they become icons of lifestyle.” WellsHardFormCultureLinesRocksStyleProductsDrivenLifestyleIdeologySymbolsGoodsAestheticCommerceConsumerismCommodityIconsTransportationMotorcycleOverconsumptionPopular CultureApparelCadillacsHard RockHarleyMarqueeHarley Davidson Author:Benjamin Barber

“Not to say that the process assumes anything of "greater" or "lesser" importance, though: it's just more graphic information. Take the surrealists, for example, or a work by Cage. For me, there's a great value in doing this with literature. There's a certain form of dependence; process and product inform each other, depend on each other. I consider myself a writer who doesn't write with a style, almost. I begin with tension, with a vibe, a character.” WritingCharacterFormCertainValuesLiteratureProcessGreaterStyleInformationExampleProductsDependsImportanceAssumingTensionDependenceCagesGraphicGreat ValueSurrealist Author:Sergio Chejfec
“Women are rising slowly but steadily into full partnership with men all over the world. This is going to change everything. When the rich mind- style of women is available - with an emphasis on process, rather than on end-product, and on making things cohere, grow and interlink - - then it changes the way we educate, it changes the way we govern, it changes the way we worship.” MenWorldWayMindEndsGrowsProcessRichStyleProductsWorshipAvailableRisingEducatePartnershipEmphasis Author:Jean Houston
