Forever Quality Spirit

More From Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

Quality doesn't mean deep blacks and whatever tonal range. that's not quality, that's a kind of quality. the pictures of robert frank might strike someone as being sloppy-the tone range isn't right and things like that-but they're far superior to the pictures of ansel adams with regard to quality, because the quality of ansel adams, if i may say so, is essentially the quality of a postcard. but the quality of robert frank is a quality that has something to do with what he's doing, what his mind is. it's not balancing out the sky to the sand and so forth. it's got to do with intention.

I had been in a shakespeare company for three years and done a lot of shakespeare. that was fun. that was interesting. it was a lot of work - anything other than shakespeare was less work. i had a lot of interesting roles, but i don't point to them and say, "that was more interesting than that," because i don't know what the criteria are.

I used to like reading and you read enough books and you overflow and then you start writing.
Book Reading Writing
I think many of my books, including "handle with care," including "my sister's keeper" circle back to how far are we willing to go for the people we love? i think love changes the way we think. it's the thing that takes you out of what your normal set of beliefs would be.

[t]he effects of general change [in literature] are most tellingly recorded not in alteration of the best products, but in the transformation of the most ordinary workaday books; for when potboilers adopt the new style, then the revolution is complete.
