Robert Doisneau, French Photographer (1912- )
Melville brought to the task a sound knowledge of actual whaling, much curious learning in the literature of the subject, and, above all, an imagination which worked with great power upon the facts of his own experience.
Carl Clinton Van Doren, American Critic (1885-1950)

Katherine Dunham, American Dancer (1909-2006)
For us artists there waits the joyous compromise through art with all that wounded or defeated us in daily life; in this way, not to evade destiny, as the ordinary people try to do, but to fulfil it in its true potential - the imagination.
Lawrence Durrell, British Writer (1912-1990)
Genocide begins, however improbably, in the conviction that classes of biological distinction indisputably sanction social and political discrimination.
