Valued Form

Famous quotes containing the words valued and/or form:

    Even the hatred
    in a man
    who’s valued for his learning
    is desirable,
    but I’m shamed
    by even love
    in a person
    who’s reviled by others.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    Industrial societies turn their citizens into image-junkies; it is the most irresistible form of mental pollution. Poignant longings for beauty, for an end to probing below the surface, for a redemption and celebration of the body of the world. Ultimately, having an experience becomes identical with taking a photograph of it.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
