This benefit of seeing...can come only if you pause a while, extricate yourself from the maddening mob of quick impressions ceaselessly battering our lives, and look thoughtfully at a quiet image...the viewer must be willing to pause, to look again, to meditate.

This Benefit Of Seeing...can Come Only If

This benefit of seeing...can come only if you pause a while, extricate yourself from the maddening mob of quick impressions ceaselessly battering our lives, and look thoughtfully at a quiet image...the viewer must be willing to pause, to look again, to meditate.

More From Dorothea Lange

Our first impressions are generated by our experiences and our environment, which means that we can change our first impressions... by changing the experiences that comprise those impressions.
Mean First Impression Firsts
Strip back the beliefs pasted on by governesses, schools, and states, you find indelible truths at one's core. rome'll decline and fall again, cortés'll lay tenochtitlán to waste again, and later, ewing will sail again, adrian'll be blown to pieces again, you and i'll sleep under the corsican stars again, i'll come to bruges again, fall in and out of love with eva again, you'll read this letter again, the sun'll grow cold again. nietzsche's gramophone record. when it ends, the old one plays it again, for an eternity of eternities.
Stars Fall School
The educated man pictures a horde of submen, wanting only a day's liberty to loot his house, burn his books, and set him to work minding a machine or sweeping out a lavatory. 'anything,' he thinks, 'any injustice, sooner than let that mob loose.' he does not see that since there is no difference between the mass of rich and poor, there is no question of setting the mob loose. the mob is in fact loose now, and--in the shape of rich men--is using its power to set up enormous treadmills of boredom, such as 'smart' hotels.
Smart Book Men
The tendency of liberals is to create bodies of men and women-of all classes-detached from tradition, alienated from religion, and susceptible to mass suggestion-mob rule. and a mob will be no less a mob if it is well fed, well clothed, well housed, and well disciplined.
Men Class Mob Rule
A mob's always made up of people, no matter what. mr. cunningham was part of a mob last night, but he was still a man. every mob in every little southern town is always made up of people you know--doesn't say much for them, does it?
Night Men People
The city of new york is like an enormous citadel, a modern carcassonne. walking between the magnificent skyscrapers one feels the presence on the fringe of a howling, raging mob, a mob with empty bellies, a mob unshaven and in rags.

Is it just me, or does every woman in new york have a severe emotional problem?
New York Emotional Doe
When i was a young comic in new york and i wasn't getting any work, i was wandering around the lower east side with my notebook. i would stop at the guitar place on st. mark's and talk to that dude for a while, then i'd go to the bookstore and talk to that dude for a little while. i had a guy over at the record store, and i'd talk to him for a while. it kept me connected to life.
Notebook New York Guitar
The place smelled of fairgrounds, of lazy crowds, of nights when you stayed out because you couldn't go to bed, and it smelled like new york, of its calm and brutal indifference.
