Sunrise Southern Oregon, Feb. 2 by Dennis Dunleavy
"Association plays a key role in what the mind's eye sees....
The mind's eye incorporates what we know with what we see. Since each of us has a unique conglomeration of facts, memories, associations, and speculations in our heads, what one mind's eye sees at any moment is very different from what another mind's eye sees. Artists, writers, and personal friends can open our eyes to what they see and thereby enlarge our vision, but ultimately the images that form in our brains are our own." -- David Finn
