“The anthropologist respects history, but he does not accord it a special value. He conceives it as a study complementary to his own: one of them unfurls the range of human societies in time, the other in space.” HumansDoeValuesSpaceStudySpecialRangeAccordHuman SocietyAnthropologistsComplementary Author:Claude Levi-Strauss

“I am beginning to understand that the stream the scientists are studying is not just a little creek. It's a river of energy that moves across regions in great geographic cycles. Here, life and death are only different points on a continuum. The stream flows in a circle through time and space, turning death into life across coastal ecosystems, as it has for more than a million years. But such streams no longer flow in the places where most of us live.” YearsLittlesDifferentMovingEnergySpaceMillionsStudyFlowRiversScientistEnvironmentalCirclesStreamsLife And DeathRegionsCyclesTime And SpaceEcosystemsRough TimesContinuumCreeksCoastal Author:Kathleen Moore
“The intellectual tradition of the West is very individualistic. It's not community-based. The intellectual is often thought of as a person who is alone and cut off from the world. So I have had to practice being willing to leave the space of my study to be in community, to work in community, and to be changed by community.” WorldPersonsCommunitySpacePracticeStudyCuttingChangedWillingIntellectualTraditionWestIndividualistic Author:Bell Hooks
“The color and spectacle of Mexico's streets sparked my interest in community driven space and experience, a passion that I began to develop while studying architecture at Syracuse University and then at the Architectural Association School in London.

“One very great annoyance in open air gatherings is cigar smoke when blown directly in one's face or worse yet the smoke from a smouldering cigar. It is almost worthy of a study in air currents to discover why with plenty of space all around, a tiny column of smoke will make straight for the nostrils of the very one most nauseated by it!” FacesSpaceStudyAirCurrentsWorthyTinyPlentySmokeGatheringColumnsCigarAnnoyance Author:Emily Post
“Create sacred spaces in the workplace as well. Classrooms, five years ago, professors would say, I don't want be a nanny to my students. They can do whatever they want. Now professors are saying, put away that laptop, because studies show that it not only takes away the attention of the person who's on the laptop from the class, but everyone around them. There's like a circle around that person that's distracted and not paying attention.” WantYearsWellsPersonsShowsCan DoSpaceAttentionClassStudyFiveStudentsYears AgoSacredCirclesPay AttentionFive YearsProfessorsClassroomWorkplaceDistractedLaptopsNanniesSacred Space Author:Judy Woodruff
