Pastoral Resources

Although I am basically self taught, I consider Debussy my teacher - the most important elements are colour, light and shadow.

I saw my mother in a different light. We all need to do that. You have to be displaced from what's comfortable and routine, and then you get to see things with fresh eyes, with new eyes.

Find beauty not only in the thing itself but in the pattern of the shadows, the light and dark which that thing provides.

We Orientals find beauty not only in the thing itself but in the pattern of the shadows, the light and darkness which that thing provides.

When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself.

Words which do not give the light of Christ increase the darkness.

An evil person is like a dirty window, they never let the light shine through.

There was one man who was interested in the color of music, the connection between light and music, and that was Einstein.

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

In the beginning there was nothing and God said 'Let there be light', and there was still nothing but everybody could see it.

A light, tender, sensitive touch is worth a ton of brawn.

The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake. There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star.

There are two kinds of light - the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures.

Twilight - a time of pause when nature changes her guard. All living things would fade and die from too much light or too much dark, if twilight were not.

When my mood was high, I seemed normal, even buoyant. I felt smarter. I had secrets. I could see God in a light bulb.

And suddenly, like light in darkness, the real truth broke in upon me; the simple fact of Man, which I had forgotten, which had lain deep buried and out of sight; the idea of community, of unity.

He who closes his eyes sees nothing, even in the full light of day.

Dance with a girl three times, and if you like the light of her eye and the tone of voice with which she, breathless, answers your little questions about horseflesh and music about affairs masculine and feminine, then take the leap in the dark.

Clearly, if we'd had the kind of computer graphics capability then that we have now, the Star Gate sequence would be much more complex than flat planes of light and color.

My particular aesthetic of light and color and design wouldn't change as a result of working with computer graphics rather than with slit scan or miniatures.
