Photographer quotes
" 'To the complaint, 'There are no people in these photographs,' I respond, 'There are always two people: the photographer and the viewer.' "

Ansel Adams
" I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term -- meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching -- there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster. "

Ansel Adams
" No man has the right to dictate what other men should perceive, create or produce, but all should be encouraged to reveal themselves, their perceptions and emotions, and to build confidence in the creative spirit. "

Ansel Adams
" My favorite thing is to go where I've never been. "

Diane Arbus
" A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know. "

Diane Arbus
" Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again. "

Henri Cartier Bresson
" I think love and beauty are what life is all about. "

John Derek
" Live fast, die young, and leave a good looking corpse. "

John Derek
" The big artist keeps an eye on nature and steals her tools. "

Thomas Eakins
" I don't like to work with assistants. I'm already one too many; the camera alone would be enough. "

Alfred Eisenstaedt
" I dream that someday the step between my mind and my finger will no longer be needed. And that simply by blinking my eyes, I shall make pictures. Then, I think, I shall really have become a photographer. "

Alfred Eisenstaedt
" It is more important to click with people than to click the shutter. "

Alfred Eisenstaedt
" Keep it simple. "

Alfred Eisenstaedt
" Never boss people around. It's more important to click with people than to click the shutter. "

Alfred Eisenstaedt
" Once the amateur's naive approach and humble willingness to learn fades away, the creative spirit of good photography dies with it. Every professional should remain always in his heart an amateur. "
