Text Quotes
When I first became interested in photography, I thought it was the whole cheese. My idea was to have it recognized as one of the fine arts. Today I don’t give a hoot in hell about that. The mission of photography is to explain man to man and each man to himself. (Edward Steichen Quotes)
The boy and girl going hand in hand through a meadow; the mother washing her baby; the sweet simple things in life. We have almost lost track of them. (Edward Steichen Quotes)
The boy and girl going hand in hand through a meadow; the mother washing her baby; the sweet simple things in life. We have almost lost track of them. On the one side, we over-intellectualize everything; on the other hand, we are over-mechanized. We can understand the danger of the atomic bomb, but the danger of our misunderstanding the meaning of life is much more serious (Edward Steichen Quotes)
When that shutter clicks, anything else that can be done afterward is not worth consideration (Edward Steichen Quotes)
A good daguerreotype was as perfect a kind of photograph as was ever made (Edward Steichen Quotes)
Every ten years a man should give himself a good kick in the pants (Edward Steichen Quotes)
No photographer is as good as the simplest camera (Edward Steichen Quotes)
Once you really commence to see things, then you really commence to feel things (Edward Steichen Quotes)
A photograph is worth a thousand words, provided it is accompanied by only ten words (Edward Steichen Quotes)
A portrait is not made in the camera but on either side of it (Edward Steichen Quotes)
Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face (Edward Steichen Quotes)
I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself (Edward Steichen Quotes)
Art for art’s sake is dead, if it ever lived (Edward Steichen Quotes)

To make good photographs, to express something, to contribute something to the world he lives in, and to contribute something to the art of photography besides imitations of the best photographers on the market today, that is basic training, the understanding of self (Edward Steichen Quotes)
It is an error common to many artists, who strive merely to avoid mistakes, when all our efforts should be to create positive and important work. Better positive and important with mistakes and failures than perfect mediocrity (Edward Steichen Quotes)
Every other artist begins with a blank canvas, a piece of paper the photographer begins with the finished product (Edward Steichen Quotes)
There is only one optimist. He has been here since man has been on this earth, and that is man himself. If we hadn’t had such a magnificent optimism to carry us through all these things, we wouldn’t be here. We have survived it on our optimism (Edward Steichen Quotes)
The use of the term art medium is, to say the least, misleading, for it is the artist that creates a work of art not the medium. It is the artist in photography that gives form to content by a distillation of ideas, thought, experience, insight and understanding (Edward Steichen Quotes)
The mission of photography is to explain man to man and each to himself. And that is the most complicated thing on earth (Edward Steichen Quotes)
Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face, the beauty of the earth and skies that man has inherited, and the wealth and confusion man has created. It is a major force in explaining man to man (Edward Steichen Quotes)
I knew, of course, that trees and plants had roots, stems, bark, branches and foliage that reached up toward the light. But I was coming to realize that the real magician was light itself (Edward Steichen Quotes)
