Bias and impartiality is in the eye of the beholder. (Damon Matt)

Perspective, as its inventor remarked, is a beautiful thing. What horrors of damp huts, where human beings languish, may not become picturesque through aerial distance! What hymning of cancerous vices may we not languish over as sublimest art in the safe remoteness of a strange language and artificial phrase! Yet we keep a repugnance to rheumatism and other painful effects when presented in our personal experience. (Damon Matt)
The seeing of objects involves many sources of information beyond those meeting the eye when we look at an object. It generally involves knowledge of the object derived from previous experience, and this experience is not limited to vision but may include the other senses: touch, taste, smell, hearing, and perhaps also temperature or pain. (Damon Matt)

Every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. (Damon Matt)
A little grit in the eye destroyeth the sight of the very heavens, and a little malice or envy a world of joys. One wry principle in the mind is of infinite consequence. (Damon Matt)
I wasn't to make an album that's going to make people say 'WOW! I thought she was just some stupid little teen pop girl who didn't know what was going on' I want to prove people wrong. (Damon Matt)
I'm more relaxed since I met Vanessa, I have more distance and therefore I have more perspective. (Damon Matt)
We have a similar perspective, ... We're total hams. (Damon Matt)
