The photograph that discovers and uncovers the world is harder to simulate than an image that simply illustrates one's ideas about it.
Fred Ritchin

The unary Photograph has every reason to be banal, 'unity' of composition being the first rule of vulgar (and notably, of academic) rhetoric: 'The subject,' says one handbook for amateur photographers, 'must be simple, free of useless accessories this is called the Search for Unity.
Roland Barthes

Most of my photographs were taken on the spur of the moment, very quickly, just as they occurred. All attention focuses on the specific instant, almost too good to be true, which can only vanish in the following one.
Willy Ronis
Image
Photographs force us to see people before their future weighed them down, before they knew their endings.
Kate Morton
Image
Photographs put time into such a perspective. They humble us and our selfish memories.
Wim Wenders
Image
I find still photographs make me quite self-conscious.
Aidan Gillen
Image
What if I said that every photograph I made was set up? From the photograph, you can't prove otherwise. You don't know anything from the photograph about how it was made, really.
Garry Winogrand

The reason I do photographs is to help people understand my music, so it's very important that I am the same, emotionally, in the photographs as in the music. Most people's eyes are much better developed than their ears. If they see a certain emotion in the photograph, then they'll understand the music.

I don't like to reminisce much, and my walls don't have photographs of me and the actors I was with, or any of that stuff... I try and keep that disciplined, and just work. There are so many traps you can get into, and looking back on your own work is certainly one of them.
Woody Allen

The photograph, after all, is just a photograph. Words will determine its meaning and status.

I prefer a taken to a made photograph.

However much [photographs] may lie, they do so with the raw materials of truth.
Wright Morris

A thing is not what you say it is or what you photograph it to be or what you paint it to be or what you sculpt it to be. Words, photographs, paintings, and sculptures are symbols of what you see, think, and feel things to be, but they are not the things themselves.
Wynn Bullock

I feel all things as dynamic events, being, changing, and interacting with each other in space and time even as I photograph them.

When I photograph, what I'm really doing is seeking answers to things.

Americans are always mortified when I tell them this, but in England, it's a tradition to put your plaques and photographs and awards and gold records and stuff in your bathroom. I don't know why.
Adele

I hate cameras. They are so much more sure than I am about everything.
John Steinbeck
Image
Taking photographs is generally an act of 'looking at the object, whereas 'being seen' or 'showing' is what is most interest to one who does a self-portrait...self-portraits deny not only photography itself but the 20th century as an era as well...an inevitable phenomenon at the end of the 20th century.

A good photograph will prove to the viewer how little our eyes permit us to see
Leon Levinstein

I try to photograph people's spirits and thoughts. As to the soul-taking by the photographer, I don't feel I take away, but rather that the sitter and I give to each other. It becomes an act of mutual participation.

My chief joy is to photograph the great in heart, in mind, and in spirit, whether they be famous or humble.

Whether you are Minor White or Robert Frank, almost every photograph starts with an act of pure description - a window. But every now and then you catch a glimpse of the photographer's reflection. The mirror is just another function of the window.

I was dyslexic as a child and it took me years to get passed that. I read a lot but it was hard and that didn't go away until my early-to-mid-twenties. So really what I was looking at were the photographs and the illustrations in magazines.
Robert Benton

A photograph is a photograph. When I am making a picture I am just interested in making a very interesting photograph. I don't care where it's going to go.
