I think the most beautiful inventions are the ones you don't think of.
Diane Arbus
One thing I would never photograph is a dog lying in the mud.
Diane Arbus
Lately I've been struck with how I really love what you can't see in a photograph. An actual physical darkness. And it's very thrilling for me to see darkness again.

Diane Arbus

Diane Arbus
I think it does, a little, hurt to be photographed.
Diane Arbus
The condition of photographing is maybe the condition of being on the brink of conversion to anything.
Diane Arbus
The more specific you are, the more general it'll be.
Diane Arbus
There's a quality of legend about freaks. Like a person in a fairy tale who stops you and demands that you answer a riddle.
Diane Arbus
We've all got an identity. You can't avoid it. It's what's left when you take everything else away.
Diane Arbus
Everybody has that thing where they need to look one way but they come out looking another way and that's what people observe.
Diane Arbus
I mean, if you've ever spoken to someone with two heads, you know they know something you don't.
Diane Arbus
