""Pay attention," Susan Sontag once advised a young audience; she was speaking of the creative process, but also of living. "It's all about paying attention. It's all about taking in as much of what's out there as you can, and not letting the excuses and the dreariness of some of the obligations you'll soon be incurring narrow your lives. Attention is vitality. It connects you with others. It makes you eager. Stay eager."
–– Susan Sontag (1933-2004), American writer, philosopher, filmmaker
