"Men are separated by so many petty things."

--

Aaron Huey

“The problem isn't that people don't understand how good things are. It's that they know, from personal experience, that things really aren't that good.”
“I work in several different groups of pictures which act on and with each other - ranging from several abstracted manners to a form for the surreal. I have been called a preacher - but, in reality, I'm more generally philosophical. I have never made an abstracted photograph without content. An educated background in Zen influences all of my photographs. It has been said that my work resembles, more closely than any photographer, Le Douanier Rousseau - working in a fairly isolated area and feeding mostly on myself - I feel that I am a primitive photographer.”
“A strange passion is moving in my head My heart has become a bird which searches in the sky. Every part of me goes in different directions. Is it really so that the one I love is Everywhere?”
“We despise all reverences and all objects of reverence which are outside the pale of our list of sacred things. And yet, with strange inconsistency, we are shocked when other people despise and defile the things which are holy to us.”
“The imagination is a palette of bright colors. You can use it to touch up memories â€” or you can use it to paint dreams.”
“As the War Office of the United States was established in a time of peace, it is equally reasonable that a Peace Office should be established in a time of War.”
“You know, if you hang around this earth long enough you really see how things come full circle.”
“I've thrown or broken a few clubs in my day. In fact, I guess at one time or another I probably held distance records for every club in the bag.”
