“The cinema image is the observation of a phenomenon passing through time. Time becomes the very foundation of cinema...Time exerts a pressure which runs through the shot ...Just as a quivering reed can tell you about the current or water pressure of a river, in the same way we know the movement of time as it flows through the shot.”
― Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting in Time

“A green world, a scene of green, deep / with light blues, the greens made deep / by those blues. One thinks how / in certain pictures, envied landscapes are seen /
(through a window, maybe) far behind the serene /
sitter’s face, the serene pose, as though/in some impossible mirror, face to back, / human serenity gazed at a green world / which gazed at this face.”
― William Bronk, Selected Poems
