• Explicit knowledge, conventionally delivered like pizza (neat boxes with toppings of concepts, theories, best practices and war stories), is consumed by the brain but not metabolized into action. The learning we call intuition, know-how and common sense gets into the blood stream through osmosis. It is shaped by social context.

• Do the thing itself. Don’t pay much mind to critics or what anyone says about it. Just do it, in any form possible, and watch others doing it. Take it in viscerally, get it by osmosis. Don’t ever read your own reviews, certainly not the good ones.

• Photographic data... is still and ESSENTIALLY THE SAFEST POETIC MEDIUM and the most agile process for catching the most delicate osmoses which exist between reality and surreality. The mere fact of photographic transposition means a total invention: the capture of a secret reality.

• La Web mola, pero la biblioteca es mágica. ¿En qué otro lugar puede el espíritu de generaciones de escritores agitar tu alma? Son tantos los escritores que hablan de las bibliotecas como punto de partida de sus caminos mágicos, que casi da grima. Pero sabemos que es cierto. Pasee por las estanterías y podrá sentir los sueños, los mundos únicos que bullen en cada volumen. La magia entra en ti como por ósmosis. En la Red, uno puede sentirse inteligente, afortunado e impulsado a descargar, pero rara vez inspirado para soñar y escribir.

• Thousand years ago, we all descended from Africans who left the continent. Those ancestors, we will never know their name. We can go back 200 or 300 years and actually populate your family tree with real people who had names and documents. They had customs, characteristics that, unbeknownst to you, you have inherited. Almost through osmosis it has been passed down to you.

• Stuff Happens.’ That’s the G-rated version. That’s a bumper sticker that only a straight white upper middle class male could have made. Because anyone who isn’t straight, anyone who isn’t male, anyone who isn’t white, anyone who isn’t upper middle class knows that stuff doesn’t just happen. Stuff gets done by people to people. Nothing is a coincidence. Nothing is random. This isn’t osmosis. And so we act as if it’s this passive thing, but yet that’s not the case.

• Trabajar con Danny Thomas era una auténtica aventura cada semana. Danny no siempre decía las palabras tal y como aparecían en el guión. Aprendí más por ósmosis que sentándome juntos. Era una fuerza a tener en cuenta: un explorador de la televisión.

• Se supone que lo que la gente piense de uno no importa mucho, siempre que uno mismo sepa dónde está la verdad; pero he descubierto, al igual que otros que entran y salen de los titulares de los periódicos, que en ocasiones puede importar mucho. Porque una vez que entras en el mundo de los titulares aprendes que no hay una verdad, sino dos: la que tú conoces por los hechos y la que el público, o al menos una parte muy imaginativa del público, adquiere por ósmosis.

• Creo que la mejor manera de convertirse en un personaje es por ósmosis, en lugar de pensar directamente en las cosas. Cuanto más material tengas y entiendas, más complejo será tu personaje y la comprensión del mismo.

• Yes, I share your concern: how to program well -though a teachable topic- is hardly taught. The situation is similar to that in mathematics, where the explicit curriculum is confined to mathematical results; how to do mathematics is something the student must absorb by osmosis, so to speak. One reason for preferring symbol-manipulating, calculating arguments is that their design is much better teachable than the design of verbal/pictorial arguments. Large-scale introduction of courses on such calculational methodology, however, would encounter unsurmoutable political problems.

• I'm not going to try and change you mind." "If you're here, you accept it's my choice. This is the first thing I've been in control of since the accident." "I know." And there it was. He knew it, and I knew it. There was nothing left for me to do. Do you know how hard it is to say nothing ? When every atom of you strains to do the opposite? I just tried to be, tried to absorb the man I loved through osmosis, tried to imprint what I had left of him on myself. I did not speak.
