“As photographers, we must learn to relax our beliefs. Move on objects with your eye straight on, to the left, around on the right. Watch them grow large as they approach, group and regroup as you shift your position. Relationships gradually emerge and sometimes assert themselves with finality. And that's your picture.” SometimesEyeMovingBeliefLeftGrowsWatchesGroupsPositionObjectsApproachPhotographerRelaxFinality Author:Aaron Siskind

“One kid said to me, he said, Mr. Lloyd, we really owe you. And I explained to him, man, you owe me absolutely nothing. I said, whatever kind of career I had, it has served me well, but you do owe some people. And the people you owe are the folks who are going to come behind you. It's incumbent upon each watch — when you play your 10, 11 years and you're in your group — when you leave, I truly hope that you've done all you can possibly do to leave it a better place for the folks who come behind you.” PeopleMenYearsWellsKindSaidDonePlayKidsBehindsCareersWatchesGroupsFolksBetter PlaceBehind YouAbsolutely NothingIncumbents Author:Earl Lloyd
“Some tribes [of monkeys] have taken to washing potatoes in the river before eating them, others have not. Sometimes migrating groups of potato-washers meet non-washers, and the two groups watch each other's strange behavior with apparent bewilderment. But unlike the inhabitants of Lilliput, who fought holy crusades over the question at which end to break the egg, the potato-washing monkeys do not go to war with the non-washers, because the poor creatures have no language which would enable them to declare washing a diving commandment and eating unwashed potatoes a deadly heresy.” TwoWarEndsSometimesLanguagePoorWatchesBreakTakenGroupsSocietyStrangeHolyCreaturesBehaviorEatingRiversEggsCommandmentsTribesMonkeysPotatoesHeresyWashingCrusadesDivingBewilderment Author:Arthur Koestler
“I did a series of classes in psychology (at the institute), .. The students that came to that class had children. And over a period of a few years, they decided they wanted a nursery school, a play group (to watch over their children while they were studying). So in one of the garages that was near where we were having the classes, we established a play group area and the students volunteered to supervise. That eventually led to building a state-licensed nursery school, which was approved by the California department of social welfare.” YearsChildrenStatesPlayWantedSchoolSocialClassWatchesStudyPsychologyGroupsStudentsBuildingPeriodsAreasDecidedSeriesCaliforniaWelfareDepartmentInstituteGarageApprovedNurserySocial WelfareNursery School Author:Dorothy Nolte
“I think that most of the action in religion is around the home, is in families, and is in individual lives, and they can go on their own searches, watch their own TV shows, read their own books, form their own groups and discuss it, but that's where the action is - on the home front.” ThinkingBookShowsHomeActionFormIndividualWatchesGroupsFrontsTvsGoes OnTv ShowsIndividual Life Author:Bruce Feiler
“One of my fun road trips was [when] a group of guys and I rented a tour bus and we started in Orlando and drove all the way around the country going to baseball games. That was an awesome trip because each night we would go to a new baseball stadium, watch a baseball game, get in the bus, wake up [in] the next city, go to another baseball game. We did this for a little while and it was great. We called that trip the Rats on the Bus and it was a fun trip.” WayLittlesCountryNightGuyNextGamesFunCitiesWatchesGroupsBaseballWake UpBusRatsStadiumsRoad TripBaseball GamesOrlando Author:Alfonso Ribeiro

“I think the other thing that's important is getting to a place, which very, very rarely happens with improvising groups, where somebody can decide not to play for a while. You watch any group of musicians improvising together and they nearly all play nearly all the time. In fact I often say that the biggest difference between classical music and everything else is that classical musicians sometimes shut up because they're told to, because the score tells them to. Whereas any music that's sort of based on folk or jazz, everybody plays all the time.” ThinkingImportantSometimesPlayFactsHappensTogetherDifferencesWatchesGroupsMusicianJazzFolksScoreShut UpClassical MusicImprovisingClassical Musicians Author:Brian Eno
“Smart brands never try to appeal to more than their audience group.
