Text Quotes
Mathematics is often erroneously referred to as the science of common sense. Actually, it may transcend common sense and go beyond either imagination or intuition. It has become a very strange and perhaps frightening subject from the ordinary point of view, but anyone who penetrates into it will find a veritable fairyland, a fairyland which is strange, but makes sense, if not common sense (Subject Quotes)
Abstract understanding doesn’t mean arbitrary sloshing and messing. Abstract art is controlled visual magic based on laws and methodology. Abstraction generally involves implication, suggestion and mystery rather that obvious description. Like a good poem, a good abstraction attacks your feelings before your understanding. Abstraction within realism adds zest and excitement to otherwise dull subject matter. Abstract understanding takes time and patience (Subject Quotes)
Is it a coincidence that stories from the private life became more popular just as the grand hope for public redemption through revolution was beginning to sour? I witnessed a similar shift in taste in my own time. In the 1960s, while a hopeful vision of a just society arose again, countless poems and plays concerning politics and public life were written, read, and performed. But after the hope diminished and public life seemed less and less trustworthy, this subject was less in style (Subject Quotes)

Being gay is a natural normal beautiful variation on being human. Period. End of subject. Therefore, any argument which says differently is an immoral supremacist one. Call it out as such...

I am my own muse. I am the subject I know best. The subject I want to better (Subject Quotes)
Before you shoot an irresistible subject, mute all your senses except sight to find out how much is left for the camera to record (Subject Quotes)
The photographer has almost as much control over his subject matter as a painter. He can control light and shade, form and space, pattern and texture, motion and mood, everything except composition (Subject Quotes)
We are all citizens of one world, we are all of one blood. To hate people because they were born in another country, because they speak a different language, or because they take a different view on this subject or that, is a great folly. Desist, I implore you, for we are all equally human... Let us have but one end in view: the welfare of humanity (Subject Quotes)
I think the best teachers had a real interest in the subject they were teaching and a love for children (Subject Quotes)
I like historical pieces. History was my favorite subject in school, it was the only subject I excelled in. I love the idea of history and the idea that we may have the opportunity to learn from our past mistakes (Subject Quotes)
Ignorance breeds fear; the more you learn about your subject, the less fear it holds for you (Subject Quotes)
Talks on art are almost useless. The work which goes to bring progress in one’s own subject is sufficient compensation for the incomprehension of imbeciles (Subject Quotes)
The principal subject is the surface, which has its color, its laws over and above those of object (Subject Quotes)
When I was a child of four I wasn’t really drawing like a child, I wasn’t sketching as a child. I would sketch and I was using perspective, the good relationship of the subject (Subject Quotes)
Draw and paint the subject the way you want it to be, not as it is (Subject Quotes)
Without money, you are powerless in this world. You are totally subject to whatever happens. To be without money in the physical world is to be powerless (Subject Quotes)
In the presence of death I affirm and reaffirm the truth of all that I have said against the superstitions of the world. I would say that much on the subject with my last breath (Subject Quotes)
If I were a headmaster, I would get rid of the history teacher and get a chocolate teacher instead and my pupils would study a subject that affected all of them (Subject Quotes)
I spent nearly two hours deciding on an outfit that would look as if the subject of clothing had never crossed my mind, but would in fact show off my best features and miraculously hide the extra pounds (Subject Quotes)
If one’s sense of self is obtained through the eyes of another it is always subject to being lost (Subject Quotes)
Everywhere there is apathy. Nobody cares whether that which is preached is true or false. A sermon is a sermon whatever the subject; only, the shorter it is, the better (Subject Quotes)
Prophets, mystics, poets, scientific discoverers are men whose lives are dominated by a vision; they are essentially solitary men... whose thoughts and emotions are not subject to the dominion of the herd (Subject Quotes)
In any really good subject, one has only to probe deep enough to come to tears (Subject Quotes)
The subject does not belong to the world; rather, it is a limit of the world (Subject Quotes)
Civilized people can talk about anything. For them no subject is taboo... In civilized societies there will be no intellectual bogeys at sight of which great grownup babies are expected to hide their eyes (Subject Quotes)
Scientific thought does not mean thought about scientific subjects with long names. There are no scientific subjects. The subject of science is the human universe; that is to say, everything that is, or has been, or may be related to man (Subject Quotes)
Let us not forget: we are a pilgrim church, subject to misunderstanding, to persecution, but a church that walks serene, because it bears the force of love (Subject Quotes)
