Landscape Quotes

In the landscape of time, there are few locations less comfortable than that of one who waits for some person or event to arrive at some unknown moment in the future Picture Quote #1

Silence was the cure, if only temporarily, silence and geography. But of what was I being cured? I do not know, have never known. I only know the cure. Silence, and no connections except to landscape Picture Quote #1

At first a small line of inconceivable splendour emerged on the horizon, which, quickly expanding, the sun appeared in all of his glory, unveiling the whole face of nature, vivifying every colour of the landscape, and sprinkling the dewy earth with glittering light Picture Quote #1

For me nature is not landscape, but the dynamism of visual forces, an event rather than an appearance. These forces can only be tackled by treating color and form as ultimate identities, freeing them from all descriptive or functional roles Picture Quote #1

The most beautiful landscape cannot hold my fascinated attention as much as nature by the seaside and all that is connected with water Picture Quote #1

The field is a halfway house, halfway between the detail of those intimately known places and the ignorance of a landscape view... The essence of a field is that the cultural accommodates the natural there. The human being makes room for and makes use of those organisms that are not him. In that way the field is a poem to symbiosis, and a human contract with the natural Picture Quote #1

I went through puberty in a theme park. I’m grateful. That place was a landscape to me. I had adventures every day Picture Quote #1

A landscape image cuts across all political and national boundaries, it transcends the constraints of language and culture Picture Quote #1

There is always a subjective aspect in landscape art, something in the picture that tells us as much about who is behind the camera as about what is in front of it Picture Quote #1

I often see the materials of photography as being a type of terrain. Emulsions, liquid developers, silver salts, and fixers interact, and I construct a landscape that I need to first explore in my mind’s eye if I am to make it manifest as an artful image in silver Picture Quote #1

We rely, I think, on landscape photography to make intelligible to us what we already know Picture Quote #1

A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is hereby recognized as an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain Picture Quote #1

An agricultural landscape produces food but it also provides water, requires biodiversity to underpin soil function, pollination and other useful services, and also has value to society in terms of aesthetics and recreation Picture Quote #1

There is an eternal landscape, a geography of the soul; we search for its outline all our lives Picture Quote #1

When the magic hour arrives, my thoughts center on light rather than on the landscape. I search for perfect light, then hunt for something earthbound to match with it Picture Quote #1

I think the one overwhelming emotion that we had was when we saw the earth rising in the distance over the lunar landscape... It makes us realize that we all do exist on one small globe. For from 230,000 miles away it really is a small planet Picture Quote #1

You can put a gardener behind the wheel, but you can’t keep her eyes off the landscape Picture Quote #1

Life is like a landscape. You live in the midst of it but can describe it only from the vantage point of distance Picture Quote #1

There’s something arbitrary about taking a picture. So I can stand at the edge of a highway and take one step forward and it can be a natural landscape untouched by man and I can take one step back and include a guardrail and change the meaning of the picture radically... I can take a picture of a person at one moment and make them look contemplative and photograph them two seconds later and make them look frivolous Picture Quote #1

Disney is our contemporary landscape. The best art will reflect that and challenge you. Disney comforts you, whereas the best art shakes up your comfort level and perception Picture Quote #1

Now I really feel the landscape, I can be bold and include every tone of blue and pink: it’s enchanting, it’s delicious Picture Quote #1

All cities are geological; you cannot take three steps without encountering ghosts bearing all the prestige of their legends. We move within a closed landscape whose landmarks constantly draw us toward the past. Certain shifting angles, certain receding perspectives, allow us to glimpse original conceptions of space, but this vision remains fragmentary. It must be sought in the magical locales of fairy tales and surrealist writings: castles, endless walls, little forgotten bars, mammoth caverns, casino mirrors Picture Quote #1

The body repeats the landscape. They are the source of each other and create each other Picture Quote #1

I was interested in how we engage the world. How do we use our skin as our eyes? If you read a cityscape or a landscape with just your mind, and not your body, it becomes like a picture or representation, not something you really engage with Picture Quote #1

It is only by walking in the digital footsteps of your customer that you can uncover a new landscape of opportunities for engagement as well as a new reality for your business Picture Quote #1

If your spirit still looks around at the time of prayer, then it does not yet pray as a monk. You are no better than a man of affairs engaged in a kind of landscape gardening Picture Quote #1

All human populations are in some sense immigrants. All hostility between different cultures in one place has an aspect of the classic immigrant grudge against the next boatload approaching the shore. To defend one’s home and fields and ancestral graves against invasion seems a right. But to claim unique possession – to compound the fact of settlement with the aspect of a landscape into an abstract of eternal and immutable ownership – is a joke Picture Quote #1

I had no aspirations to become a landscape photographer at all. In fact it was portraiture that was my beginning, I suppose. I have always been a very keen walker, though, and I often took a camera with me on my walks. But I was, and still am, an avid reader and so when I first started I chose to photograph many of the great writers in this country to try and earn a living Picture Quote #1

That shoreline where the island of knowing meets the unfathomable sea of our own being is the landscape of myth Picture Quote #1

A collection of plants is not a landscape, any more than a list of choice words is a poem. The merit is in the design, not the material it is expressed in, and the best designs, like the best poems, make ordinary material significant by its arrangement Picture Quote #1
