Essence Quotes

The essence of the liberal outlook lies not in what opinions are held, but in how they are held; instead of being held dogmatically, they are held tentatively, and with a consciousness that new evidence may at any moment lead to their abandonment Picture Quote #1

Objectivity is of the very essence of photography, its contribution and at the same time its limitation Picture Quote #1

With the camera, it’s all or nothing. You either get what you’re after at once, or what you do has to be worthless. I don’t think the essence of photography has the hand in it so much.

After knowing what to take, you have to do the editing Picture Quote #1

Kindness, as we will see, has many facets. But its essence is as simple as can be. We will find that kindness is a way of making _less_ effort. It is the most economic attitude there is, because it saves us much energy that we might otherwise waste in suspicion, worry, resentment, manipulation, or unnecessary defense. It is an attitude that, by eliminating the inessential, brings us back to the simplicity of being Picture Quote #1

Magick, in essence, is the ability to communicate to the universe what you want in an effective way, so that the universe can then respond and create what you desire Picture Quote #1

The essence of dramatic form is to let an idea come over people without it being plainly stated. When you say something directly, it’s simply not as potent as it is when you allow people to discover it for themselves Picture Quote #1

Cool? Am I cool? I don’t know, but I hope my characters are cool, in the sense of iconic. That’s my job, at its very essence Picture Quote #1

In essence, should we know better? Picture Quote #1
