    Art   Abuse   Trying  
    Tina Modotti, Robert Miller, Spencer Throckmorton, Robert Miller Gallery (New York, N.Y.) (1997). “Tina Modotti: photographs”

    Father   Taken   Mean  
    "Sayings of the Century". Book by Nigel Rees, 1984.

  • Money values do not simply mirror the state of affairs in the real world; valuation is a positive act that makes an impact on the course of events.
