A picture I took in St. Louis, Missouri (during a PAW convention) with a little point-n-shoot when I was...oh, about 14 years old. I think this is the photo that started my love for photography cause it's exactly how I remembered it...both in eye and in heart.
I love quotes. But it is good to run across some quotes with the context surrounding the creation of the quote itself. Some of my favorites follow.
"This isn't right, this isn't even wrong." - Wolfgang Pauli, upon reading a young physicist's paper
"We're going to turn this team around 360 degrees." -Jason Kidd, upon his drafting to the Dallas Mavericks (I'm sure they loved his strategy)
"Ask her to wait a moment - I am almost done." - Carl Friedrich Gauss, while working when informed his wife was dying
"I don't feel good." - The last words of Luther Burbank (great lasts words for anyone I'd say...)
"A people that values its privileges above its principles soon loses both." - Dwight D. Eisenhower, Inaugural Address, January 20, 1953
"Assassins!" -Arthur Toscanini to his orchestra
