Pablo Casals is a very great artist.

Given the low level of competence among politicians, every American should become a libertarian.

It seems to be extensively believed by photographers that meanings are to be found in the world much in the way rabbits are found in downs, and all that is required is the talent to spot them and the skill to shoot them...
