Commemoration of Brigid, Abbess of Kildare, c.525 Who belongs to the Church? Who is my true brother? We cannot always tell whether or not a man believes in Christ; but we can always ask -- Christianity is not a secret society. And if a man says he loves the Lord, why should I not treat him as my brother? If I should happen to welcome one who is only a professing Christian, who has not given his heart to Christ, what harm has it done? I will have offered the love of God to one who rejects it, and I will have given a

I have this running quandary about Christmas. I get upset about it, because I feel that we American Christians make too much of it, and too little. Too little of it, because we pile all sorts of other things onto it, including some that have only the feeblest connection with the Event it is supposed to commemorate. If God did become a man, in any real sense, it is the most important thing that ever happened. Surely we, who believe it, could well devote one day a year to uninterrupted contemplation of the fact, and let

What's really increasing more than anything is that we're getting more kids to take the SAT. That in and of itself means more kids are considering post-secondary education, which is tremendous. That's what they need to do.

Being famous doesn't mean much. Sure, you get photos, money, and popularity. But when you come to what people really want, they just want you to look bad.

We hoped that maybe we were dealing with something that was relatively short-lived over a few years in a child's life.

We, humans are destined to go ...

We, humans are destined to go extinct or come close to diminishing. We break those who care about ideals, and promote the destruction of modern society. We harmonize domination, and scrutinize diplomacy and peace. In the end, we don't care about the outer reaches and global possibilities of happiness, we just care about what happens to ourselves.

I have asked students at the beginning of their careers, what things of that sort might haunt them Ђ' what things they must photograph, things they have to try to shoot even before they master the intricacies of making dye transfer prints.

Henry James proposed asking of art three modest and appropriate questions: What is the artist trying to do? Does he do it? Was it worth doing?

Robert Adams 119 quotes

Part of the difficulty in tryi...

Part of the difficulty in trying to be both an artist and a businessperson is this: You make a picture because you have seen something beyond price; then you are to turn and assign to your record of it a cash value. If the selling is not necessarily a contradiction of the truth in the picture, it is so close to being a contradictionЂ'and the truth is always in shades of gray-that you are worn down by the threat.

Philosophy can forsake too easily the details of experience many writers and painters have demonstrated that thinking long about what art is or ought to be ruins the power to write or paint.

The word beauty is unavoidable it accounts for my decision to photograph There appeared a quality, beauty seemed the only appropriate word for it, in certain photographs, and I am compelled to live with the vocabulary of this new sight through over many years [I] still find it embarrassing to use the word beauty, I fear I will be attacked for it, but I still believe in it.

Dive into your heart center. Sit in the silence. Desire self-realization with all your heart, with all your mind, and all your soul. Everything will take care of itself.

What we hope for from the artist is help in discovering the significance of a place. In this sense we would choose in most respects for thirty minutes with Edward Hopper's painting Sunday Morning to thirty minutes on the street that was his subject; with Hopper's vision we see more.
