The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

The Red Boat



The Wit of George Bernard Shaw

“You see things; and you say, 'Why?'
But I dream things that never were; and I say, 'Why not?'”

“Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.”

“We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”


 “A gentleman is one who puts more into the world than he takes out.”

 “You use a glass mirror to see your face; you use works of art to see your soul”

 “We should all be obliged to appear before a board every five years and justify our existence...on pain of liquidation.”


“The minority is sometimes right; the majority always wrong.”

“The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who haven't got it.”

“Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire,
you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.”

“The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact than a drunken man is happier than a sober one”


“Two percent of the people think; three percent of the people think they think; and ninety-five percent of the people would rather die than think.”

“Human beings are the only animals of which I am thoroughly and cravenly afraid.”

I think a photography class should be a requirement in all educational programs because it makes you see the world rather than just look at it. — Author Unknown
