Artists seem to know no limits to their verbal inanities. When asked about her artistic ambitions, Vanessa Williams said she wants to "paint with all the colors of the wind." Very poetic, but gibberish all the same. No one has ever asked me about my artistic ambitions but now I'm ready, just in case...
I want to photograph with all the taste of the sunshine. I want to record all the sounds of fog. I want to feel all the smells of whistling.

Der Konfuzianismus ist aber mehr in China beheimatet.

Dennis meinte wohl eher das Stichwort "Wasser". /ninja.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="ninja.gif" />

Allerdings - wenn ich mich nicht irre - lässt Konfuzius den o.stumpf-Faktor aussen vor...

Konfuzius sagt: "Auch was stumpf ist, kann sich als scharfes Schwert erweisen" /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

The Minolta-Forum-Member: A Camera is a Minolta.

The Kennedyist: Ask not what your camera can do for you; ask what you can do for your camera!
