Ambiguity is really important to me. Part of the difficulty facing photographers is that almost any subject matter has accumulated a representational history, so to find a new discursive space, a space to wander around those subject matters, is a real challenge.
Just because somebody drops in on you from another dimension, don't assume they're wiser than you about anything at all, or that they can do anything better than you can do yourself. Discarnate or mortal, what matters about people is what they know.
I also learned that you are affected by your environment, even if you try not to be. Color, light that is, matters because you want to do justice to it and also you get excited by it.
Enter into the activities of the world, without getting overjoyed by success or totally put out by failure. Whether they love you or hate you, it doesn't much matter. What matters is stillness.
It doesn’t much matter whether people care or don’t care. What matters is that people change the world.
Next year, Equality Now will celebrate - if that’s the word - will clock its twentieth year. Two decades of fighting the good fight, fighting the cause, and in case I haven’t been the clear, the cause is that one half of the human race is given the same basic equal rights that the other half enjoys. Or, not given. Given back. That is not a milestone, twenty years, that I intend to go unnoticed. I want to make some noise. I want to make a joyful noise, I want to make too much noise. I want the neighbors to complain. I’m tired of being polite about something that matters so much.
It's not the will to win that matters-everyone has that. It's the will to prepare to win that matters.
I want to do something that matters.
So, what we do as individuals matters. It adds up.
What matters most is a good and ready will to obey God.
Religion and faith are very personal matters. So far as the government is concerned, there is only one holy book, which is the Constitution of India.
When self control is lacking in small things, the ability to apply it to matters of importance withers away. Every day in which one does not at least deny himself some trifle is badly spent and a threat to the day following.
It's not how smart you are that matters, what really counts is how you are smart.
I don't need a belt to make me. I make the belt. I feel great and that's all that matters. I'm still heavyweight champion of the world.
I think it matters whether someone has a good heart.
What matters most is not what is behind us or before us, but what is within us.
It isn't so much what's on the table that matters, as what's on the chairs.
In the end, what really matters? Only kindness. Only making somebody a little happier for your presence.
If I like the music then at least some others will too, and that is all that matters in this context.
Men live, and then they die. It is the quality of the process of living which matters, that and that alone.
