Kodak has no intention of getting out of the film photography business, at least for now, CEO Antonio M. Perez said.
 
Photographic film, paper and processing services accounted for almost half of Kodak's $13.3 billion in revenue in 2003. For the first nine months of 2007, Kodak's film products group accounted for $1.5 billion in revenue. But it also accounted for $589 million in gross profit for those nine months.

With the cost-cutting the company has done in film, Perez said, "we have now a business that is sustainable. That business is going to be a good business for us for the next (few) years.""

An old Hasidic story says we should wear a coat with two pockets in order to receive God's message. In one pocket, the message is: "You are nothing but one of billions of grains of sand in the universe." In the other, the message is: "I made the universe just for you."
