Perception is strong and sight weak. In strategy it is important to see distant things as if they were close and to take a distanced view of close things.

We see what we want to see. We idealize each other with our own fantasies.

We live by faith and not by sight.

God's eyes are always on you, you are precious in His sight

New ways of seeing can disclose new things: the radio telescope revealed quasars and pulsars, and the scanning electron microscope showed the whiskers of the dust mite. But turn the question around: Do new things make for new ways of seeing?

Eyes are more accurate witnesses than ears.

The eye obeys exactly the action of the mind.

When I walk with a camera, I walk from shot to shot, reading the light on a calibrated meter. When I walk without a camera, my own shutter opens, and the moment's light prints on my own silver gut. When I see this second way I am above all an unscrupulous observer.

The hunger of the eye is not to be despised; and they are to be pitied who have starvation of the eye.

Our sight is the most perfect and most delightful of all our senses. It fills the mind with the largest variety of ideas, converses with its objects at the greatest distance, and continues the longest in action without being tired or satiated with its proper enjoyments.

Things seen are mightier than things heard.
