Memory does not make films, it makes photographs.
Milan Kundera
Image
Making a definitive declaration of intent or meaning kills the photograph.
Daido Moriyama
Image
And the most interesting natural structure? A giant, two-thousand-mile-long fish in orbit around Jupiter, according to a reliable report in the Weekly World News. The photograph was very convincing, and I'm only surprised that more-reputable journals like New Scientist, or even just The Sun, haven't followed up with more details. We should be told.
Douglas Adams
Image
I have photographs taken of me at the time I was addicted, and thought I looked good. I see them today and realize my eyes were dead.
Kirstie Alley
Image
Our conviction that we are free to choose what we make of a photograph hides the complicity to which we are recruited in the very act of looking.
Victor Burgin
Image
Even the uncaptioned art photograph is invaded by language in the very moment it is looked at: in memory, in association, snatches of words and images continually intermingle and exchange one for the other.
Victor Burgin
Image
I think the first photograph I did was a ballplayer. It was a way of showing action or something.
Andy Warhol
Image
After writing all day I go for a walk and see a piece of architecture i want to photograph and i have to take a picture and later a poem comes in my mind.
Patti Smith
Image
I always think photographs abominable, and I don't like to have them around, particularly not those of persons I know and love. Those photographic portraits wither much sooner than we ourselves do, whereas the painted portrait is a thing which is felt, done with love.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
It isn't an easy job to paint oneself - at any rate if it is to be different from a photograph. And you see - this, in my opinion, is the advantage that impressionism possesses over all the other things it is not banal, and one seeks after a deeper resemblance than the photograph.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Facts cling to photographs like dust.
Andy Grundberg
Image
Seeing is no longer believing. The very notion of truth has been put into crisis. In a world bloated with images, we are finally learning that photographs do indeed lie.
Barbara Kruger
Image
I can photograph someone if I can touch them.
Eugene Richards
Image
My father has made a museum with my cuttings and photographs.
Andres Iniesta
Image
Photographers - idiots, of which there are so many - say, Oh, if only I had a Nikon or a Leica, I could make great photographs. That's the dumbest thing I ever heard in my life. It's nothing but a matter of seeing, and thinking, and interest.
Andreas Feininger
Image
Two factors thus emerge as requisites of success in the field of creative photography. First, the subject must be photogenic. Second, its re-creation in a photograph must be based upon technical knowledge, guided and supported by artsitic inspiration.
Andreas Feininger
Image
A technically perfect photograph can be the world's most boring picture.
Andreas Feininger
Image
What matters is not what you photograph, but why and how you photograph it. Even the most controversial subject, if depicted by a sensitive photographer with honesty, sympathy, and understanding, can be transformed into an emotionally rewarding experience.
Andreas Feininger
Image
Seeing is not enough you have to feel what you photograph
Andre Kertesz
Image
My camera, my intentions stopped no man from falling. Nor did they aid him after he had fallen. It could be said that photographs be damned for they bind no wounds. Yet, I reasoned, if my photographs could cause compassionate horror within the viewer, they might also prod the conscience of that viewer into taking action.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
I would that my photographs might be, not the coverage of a news event, but an indictment of war.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
In music I still prefer the minor key, and in printing I like the light coming from the dark. I like pictures that surmount the darkness, and many of my photographs are that way. It is the way I see photographically. For practical reasons, I think it looks better in print too.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
Negatives are the notebooks, the jottings, the false starts, the whims, the poor drafts, and the good draft but never the completed version of the work The print and a proper one is the only completed photograph, whether it is specifically shaded for reproduction, or for a museum wall.
W. Eugene Smith
Image
Photography is a small voice, at best, but sometimes one photograph, or a group of them, can lure our sense of awareness.
