Famous quotes containing the words visual, program and/or editor:
“I may be able to spot arrowheads on the desert but a refrigerator is a jungle in which I am easily lost. My wife, however, will unerringly point out that the cheese or the leftover roast is hiding right in front of my eyes. Hundreds of such experiences convince me that men and women often inhabit quite different visual worlds. These are differences which cannot be attributed to variations in visual acuity. Man and women simply have learned to use their eyes in very different ways.”
—Edward T. Hall (b. 1914)
“[T]he minister preached a sermon on Jonah and the whale, at the end of which an old chief arose and declared, We have heard several of the white people talk and lie; we know they will lie, but this is the biggest lie we ever heard.”
—Administration in the State of Miss, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“For a long time I was reporter to a journal, of no very wide circulation, whose editor has never yet seen fit to print the bulk of my contributions, and, as is too common with writers, I got only my labor for my pains. However, in this case my pains were their own reward.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
