Henry David Thoreau "It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see." Hayao Miyazaki "I am an animator. I feel like I'm the manager of a animation cinema factory. I am not an executive. I'm rather like a foreman, like the boss of a team of craftsmen. That is the spirit of how I work." Andy Warhol "My fascination with letting images repeat and repeat - or in film's case 'run on' - manifests my belief that we spend much of our lives seeing without observing." Alexandra Stoddard "What we do today, right now, will have an accumulated effect on all our tomorrows." Leonardo da Vinci "Learning never exhausts the mind." |
