Is this wide world not large enough to fill thee,Nor Nature, nor that deep man's Nature, Art?Are they too thin, too weak and poor to still thee,Thou little heart?

Is this wide world not large enough to fill thee,Nor Nature, nor that deep man's Nature, Art?Are they too thin, too weak and poor to still thee,Thou little heart?

Copy Quote Text

The fruits of the tree of Knowledge are various; he must be strong indeed who can digest all of them.

Mary Elizabeth Coleridge Novelist

How often one talks not to hear what the other person has got to say, but to hear what one has got to say oneself!

Mary Elizabeth Coleridge Novelist

Breathe slumbrous music round me, sweet and slow,To honied phrases set!Into the land of dreams I long to go.Bid me forget!

Mary Elizabeth Coleridge Novelist

Where is delight? and what are pleasures now?-Moths that a garment fret.The world is turned memorial, crying, "ThouShalt not forget!

Mary Elizabeth Coleridge Novelist

The mystical life is at the centre of all that I do and all that I think and all that I write.

William Butler Yeats Poet

No poet, no artist of any art, has his complete meaning alone. His significance, his appreciation is the appreciation of his relation to the dead poets and artists. You cannot value him alone; you must set him, for contrast and comparison, among the dead.

T. S. Eliot Playwright

There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.

Ansel Adams Photographer

Immature artists imitate. Mature artists steal.

Lionel Trilling Literary Critic

Man's destructive hand spares nothing that lives; he kills to feed himself, he kills to clothe himself, he kills to adorn himself, he kills to attack, he kills to defend himself, he kills to instruct himself, he kills to amuse himself, he kills for the sake of killing.

Joseph De Maistre Philosopher

We needed to do "Community Project" to feel comfortable doing our own thing, and then "That's It That's All" was this experiment with camera technology and shooting snowboarding a little differently. "Art of Flight" was that dream of "That's it That's All" realized. Then we didn't want to make an "Art of Flight 2," so we stepped back and tried to take a different approach to create a more multi-faceted film. "The Fourth Phase" has more of a storyline, and it was much more personal for me.
