Anthropology... has always been highly dependent upon photography... as the use of still photography - and moving pictures - has become increasingly essential as a part of anthropological methods, the need for photographers with a disciplined knowledge of anthropology and for anthropologists with training in photography has increased. we expect that in the near future sophisticated training in photography will be a requirement for all anthropologists. (1962)

The really important facts were that spatial relationships had ceased to matter very much and that my mind was perceiving the world in terms of other than spatial categories. at ordinary times the eye concerns itself with such problems as where? — how far? — how situated in relation to what? in the mescaline experience the implied questions to which the eye responds are of another order. place and distance cease to be of much interest. the mind does its perceiving in terms of intensity of existence, profundity of significance, relationships within a pattern.

I don't like it when reviews aren't about the movie. when they're about how much money somebody made, or who they're sleeping with, or if they got the job via some connection, or about how fox is putting x amount of dollars into it.

But people as a rule believe only what they want to believe, and if you tell them anything else they'll call you a trouble-maker and get rid of you and never give you your job back, even if what you said is proved spot on right by time.
