"Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still." ~ Dorothea Lange
"A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know." ~Diane Arbus
Most things in life are moments of pleasure and a lifetime of embarrassment; photography is a moment of embarrassment and a lifetime of pleasure.
Tony Benn
The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking.
Brooks Anderson
A photograph is neither taken nor seized by force. It offers itself up. It is the photo that takes you. One must not take photos.
Henri Cartier-Bresson
