Famous quotes containing the word process:

    “That which endures is not one or another association of living forms, but the process of which the cosmos is the product, and of which these are among the transitory expressions.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
    —Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)

    “The process of writing has something infinite about it. Even though it is interrupted each night, it is one single notation.”
    —Elias Canetti (b. 1905)
