One of the things that's attractive about cyberspace is that it can be construed as no threat. If you see it through the video game keyhole, the amusement keyhole, the entertainment keyhole, it is no threat. If you see it through the LSD keyhole, the consciousness-expanding keyhole, it's like electronic drugs: it is a threat.
What is a scientist after all? It is a curious man looking through a keyhole, the keyhole of nature, trying to know what's going on.

Time is a keyhole.... We sometimes bend and peer through it. And the wind we feel on our cheeks when we do--the wind that blows through the keyhole--is the breath of all the living universe.
The precise effects of lensing depend on the mass of the lens, the structure of space-time, and the relative distance between us, the lens, and the distant object behind it.

A photographer is like a writer... you're writing with your lens so make sure you tell a good story.
With a short lens I can reveal the hidden things near at hand, with a long lens the hidden things far away. The telephoto lens provides a new visual sensation for people: it widens their horizons. And, conversely, the things under our nose invariably look good when blown up really big.
It is good to be in front of the lens to appreciate more being behind the lens.
You can tell a good ruined lens, right from the get-go.... That’s the kind of lens I'm looking for.

I think the 50mm lens is an extremely good discipline lens; it requires you to see in a more refined way, not just tighter.
I think, you have to forget about intellect, to a degree. Intuition is very important when you're working with a lens, I believe, for what the lens is doing, too.
