One impulse of photography, as immediate as its impulse to extend the visible, is to theatricalize its subjects. The photographer's command, Watch the birdie! is essentially a stage direction.
Stanley Cavell
Image
The writer of these lines has nothing whatsoever to teach anyone his words are just his contribution to our common discussion of what must inevitably be for us the most important subject which could be discussed by sentient beings.
Wei Wu Wei
Image
No wonder so many sermons are devoted exclusively to spiritual subjects. If one is living by the tithes of history's most destructive economy, then the disembodiment of the soul becomes the chief of worldly conveniences.
Wendell Berry
Image
When the self is ones exclusive subject and limit, reference and measure, one has no choice but to make a world of words.
Wendell Berry
Image
An art that heals and protects its subject is a geography of scars.
Wendell Berry
Image
In my suffrage work, I learned beyond question that the news coming through the great press agencies was colored and distorted and if this has been done on one subject, it has doubtless been done on others. A good many women, I think, learned a wholesome distrust of press reports during the suffrage struggle.

Many people will tell you that an expert is someone who knows a great deal about the subject. To this I would object that one can never know much about any subject. I would much prefer the following definition: an expert is someone who knows some of the worst mistakes that can be made in the subject, and how to avoid them.

If you truly love film, I think the healthiest thing to do is not read books on the subject. I prefer the glossy film magazines with their big color photos and gossip columns, or the National Enquirer. Such vulgarity is healthy and safe.
Werner Herzog
Image
My non-fiction films are pretty much fiction, or at least close... It's all movies for me. I never have searched for a subject. They always just come along. They never come by way of decision-making. They just haunt me. I can't get rid of them. I did not invite them.
Werner Herzog
Image
The subject of an outsider who becomes obsessed.
Wes Anderson
Image
By life's very nature we are compelled to find and maintain balance, or be subject to the symptoms of the lack thereof.

Whoever is led to believe that species are mutable will do good service by conscientiously expressing his conviction for only thus can the load of prejudice by which this subject is overwhelmed be removed.
Charles Darwin
Image
There is only one subject matter for education, and that is Life in all its manifestations
Alfred North Whitehead
Image
Do not teach too many subjects and what you teach, teach thoroughly.
Alfred North Whitehead

Aristotle maintains that the neck of the Lion is composed of a single bone. Aristotle knew nothing at all about Lions, a circumstance which did not prevent him from writing a good deal on the subject.
Will Cuppy
Image
The most important thing... is not clicking the shutter... it is clicking with the subject.
Alfred Eisenstaedt
Image
The subject of the novel is reality liberated from soul. The reader in complete independence presented with a structured process:let him evaluate it, not the author. The façade of the novel cannot be other than stone or steel, flashing electrically or dark, but silent.
Alfred Doblin
Image
The more the schemata are differentiated, the smaller the gap between the new and the familiar becomes, so that novelty, instead of constituting an annoyance avoided by the subject, becomes a problem and invites searching.
Jean Piaget
Image
Freedom comes only to those who no longer ask of life that it shall yield them any of those personal goods that are subject to the mutations of time.
Bertrand Russell
Image
Everybody is ignorant, only on different subjects.
