It's unique to photography. Photographs are unique in that they are a frame abstracted out of reality, out of, in this case, a civil war. A single event can carry so much weight. And that is extraordinary.
Stuart FranklinCuba is actually one where I am more optimistic because of the unique nature of Cuba - 90 miles off our shore with a massive ex-patriot population, now Cuban-American population that still have deep links to the island.

Dorothea BrandeI am not sure, once a poet has found out what has been written already, and how it was written - once, in short, he has learnt his trade - that he should bother with literature at all. Poetry is not like surgery, a technique that can be copied. Every operation the poet performs is unique, and need never be done again.
Philip LarkinThe making of miracles to edification was as ardently admired by pious Victorians as it was sternly discouraged by Jesus of Nazareth. Not that the Victorians were unique in this respect.

Is there danger that the human mind will be overshadowed by the power of computers, or we can still survive?
Garry KasparovWe are not known by our bank balances or who our parents are. It is ultimately we who have to prove ourselves. It is not important to own a particular brand of car. But we should be a brand in ourselves. Each of us is unique.
Anita RatnamWhat excites me and what I find most compelling is clearly not what excites other artists. It comes from my own idiosyncratic background and what I'm drawn to.

Philip TaaffeCalvin: Today for show and tell, I've brought a tiny miracle of nature: a single snowflake!

Lynn MargulisExternal success has to do with people who may see me as a model, or an example, or a representative. As much as I may dislike or want to reject that responsibility, this is something that comes with public success.

The confluence is fortunate, an alignment that gives women unique opportunities to assist in the continuing transformation of the workplace.

I am so thankful to Debra Lee and everyone at the BET Network for providing me with this unique opportunity and platform.
Keke PalmerFinding and creating your life's work, even if it is entirely different from what you have done most of your life, will bring you more happiness and health than any other action you can take.

Dennis KimbroThe amazing fact that one person can make his own film - I think animation is somewhat unique in that respect. I don't need to deal with lawyers. I don't need to deal with corporations.

Each film I make gets more popular, more press and makes more money. So it's amazing that I've survived and actually prospered doing that sort of homegrown, cottage-industry filmmaking.
