Vision Quotes
-
Tunnel vision can kill creativity.
Ami Vitale
-
Try to take hold of your sensibility, and use it as if it were a faculty, like vision.
George Eliot
-
Positive images of the future are a powerful and magnetic force... They draw us on and energize us, give us courage and will to take on important initiatives. Negative images of the future also have a magnetism. They pull the spirit downward in the path of despair.
William James
-
When you think about being a director, you think about writing stories, putting the camera in interesting places and directing the actors to get your vision, but it's hard to imagine even this process... sitting here nine months later talking about the film and talking about it 20 times in one day. You don't even think about the part where you come to the set every morning and everyone's looking at you to see your mood in order to see what the day is going to be like, and the influence that you wield.
Cary Fukunaga
-
Sleep, Nurse of our life, Care’s best reposer,
Nature's high'st rapture, and the vision giver.
Edward Herbert, 1st Baron Herbert of Cherbury
-
You were given that pain and that vision because you have something to do with it.
Sandra Cisneros
-
Of course, the camera is a far more objective and trustworthy witness than a human being. We know that a Brueghel or Goya or James Ensor can have visions or hallucinations, but it is generally admitted that a camera can photograph only what is actually there, standing in the real world before its lens.
Hannah Hoch
-
Vision looks upwards and becomes faith.
Stephen Samuel Wise
-
No dreams, no visions, no delicious fantasies, no castles in the air, with which, as the old song so truly says, hearts are broken, heads are turned.
William Osler
-
I have a vision of the whole Church getting nearer to God by abiding by the precepts of the Book of Mormon.
Ezra Taft Benson
-
From the root, the sap rises up into the artist, flows through him, flows to his eye. Overwhelmed and activated by the force of the current, he conveys his vision into his work. And yet, standing at his appointed place as the trunk of the tree, he does nothing other than gather and pass on what rises from the depths. He neither serves nor commands he transmits. His position is humble. And the beauty at the crown is not his own; it has merely passed through him.
Paul Klee
-
The Woodshed Orchestra trade in exuberance and might, a glistening thunderslap on the hind of musical atrophy. These songs leap from disc to lap, a many-legged beast trundling with joy and vision.
Dave Bidini
-
The fashion world tells me how much they love my work, but they don't hire me very often. Tom Ford did, and he hated it. Naturally, he wanted to Photoshop away the imperfections, which is perfectly understandable. They want their vision.
Marilyn Minter
-
New ways of seeing can disclose new things
But turn the question around. Do new things make for new ways of seeing?
William Lewis Trogdon
-
I write most of my stuff. When I'm rejected in music, it hurts worse than when I don't get a role, because that's someone else's vision. If they don't see me as that part, even if I believe I'm the perfect person for it, that's their vision. The music is my vision.
Taryn Manning
Boomkat
-
I always had this vision of what I wanted to do in life.
Clarence Clemons
-
I have had a great vision on the mystery of Holy Mass and I have seen that whatever good has existed since creation is owing to it."
Anne Catherine Emmerich
-
We're gambling on our vision, and we would rather do that than make "me too" products. Let some other companies do that. For us, it's always the next dream.
Steve Jobs
-
I do believe I am special. My special gift is my vision, my commitment, and my willingness to do whatever it takes.
Anthony Robbins
-
So Polaroid's Dr. Edwin Land, at 75, went off to spend the remainder of his life doing pure science, trying to crack the code of color vision. The man is a national treasure. I don't understand why people like that can't be held up as models: This is the most incredible thing to be - not an astronaut, not a football player - but this.
Steve Jobs
-
The United Nations remains the sole universal international organisation designed to maintain global peace. And in this sense it has no alternative today. It is also apparent that it should adapt to the ever-changing world, which we discuss all the time: how it should evolve and at what rate, which components should undergo qualitative changes. Of course, I will have to or rather should use this international platform to explain Russia's vision of today's international relations, as well as the future of this organisation and the global community.
Vladimir Putin
-
Writing itself is one of the great, free human activities. There is scope for individuality, and elation, and discovery. In writing, for the person who follows with trust and forgiveness what occurs to him, the world remains always ready and deep, an inexhaustible environment, with the combined vividness of an actuality and flexibility of a dream. Working back and forth between experience and thought, writers have more than space and time can offer. They have the whole unexplored realm of human vision.
William Stafford
