Photographs Quotes

Authenticity is too big a subject to just toss in with the question about the photographs Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to take photographs that I won’t recognize as myself, and myself isn’t necessarily just blankly staring at the lens Picture Quote #1

You just can’t win. Men have very recent land mines in their heads. Women have recorded conversations and photographs in their heads from 15 years ago Picture Quote #1

I always took photographs. I photographed a lot of trees, by the way, which is another image I used often in my work, the tree image Picture Quote #1

Smiles and tears, giggles and laughs, late night calls and cute photographs. I’ll be there for you until the day of my death, best friends forever until my very last breath Picture Quote #1

I abstract it in my photographs: I like large planes and spaces, areas of texture and light, like deserts or oceans or monumental places Picture Quote #1

Sex is not a subject in my photographs, or would only be if it had to do with romance, sometimes vulnerability. The photographs are quite clearly about happiness, or search for happiness Picture Quote #1

No, I do a bunch of things to entertain myself. I paint, I make music, I take photographs Picture Quote #1

I did find a wonderful girl last year, but the photographs that we did were more about motorcars Picture Quote #1

My parents offered me my first camera for my birthday and I developed an exclusive passion for it over the years. Since I was not the most social kid on the block, the camera helped me to express myself, invent my own language - something like a secret garden. I decided early on I would not write in a diary but take silent photographs instead Picture Quote #1

I am a great admirer of Robert Vavra and love his beautiful photographs and books. He is a wonderful artist, a poet Picture Quote #1

As a scientist Miss [Rosalind] Franklin was distinguished by extreme clarity and perfection in everything she undertook. Her photographs are among the most beautiful X-ray photographs of any substance ever taken Picture Quote #1

A close friend of mine, Annie Leibovitz, who I’ve known for forty years, photographs celebrities every single day of the week but they all seem to look the same even though she’s one of the most creative photographers alive. They all just look the same. Brad Pitt is a great actor but all the pictures of Brad Pitt look the same Picture Quote #1

When people think of slavery, they think of an era from the distant past. Grainy photographs from Civil War times. And yet it goes on Picture Quote #1

Archaeologists gave the military the idea to use aerial photographs for spying and field survey. We are fortunate that the spatial and spectral resolutions of the imagery available to us are so broadly useful for archaeology Picture Quote #1

As I got older, I got more Victorian and morbid. I got into things that circled around death, like skulls or morgue photographs or handwritten diaries. They can be almost haunted with all this history, and you project onto it and then it gets onto you Picture Quote #1

[After Easy Rider] I couldn’t get another movie, so I lived in Mexico City for a couple of years. I lived in Paris for a couple of years. I didn’t take any photographs, and then I went to Japan and saw a Nikon used. I bought it, and I just started, like an alcoholic. I shot 300 rolls of film. That was the beginning of me starting again Picture Quote #1

I’m pretty lenient with myself about time - if I feel like taking photographs of small things inside ice cubes or making animal collages, I just do it. When I want to write, I write. It’s all part of the same thing for me Picture Quote #1

It is the photographs that gives one the vivid realization of what actually took place. (On photographs from Abu Ghraib prison.) Picture Quote #1

I’m always worried about the sitter - are they cold, are they hot, are they comfortable? Photography today is so accurate and so good that it’s really so much easier just to take photographs and work from them Picture Quote #1

All alone - shorn of context, without captions - a photograph is neither true nor false.... For truth, properly considered, is about the relationship between language and the world, not about photographs and the world Picture Quote #1

Never pose your subjects. Let them move about naturally... All great photographs today are snapshots Picture Quote #1

There is always something sad about the old photographs, it is because we know that people in the photos have gone forever Picture Quote #1

We all share beauty. It strikes us indiscriminately. There is no end to the beauty for the person who is aware. Even the cracks between the sidewalk contain geometric patterns of amazing beauty. If we take pictures of them and blow up the photographs, we realize we walk on beauty every day, even when things seem ugly around us Picture Quote #1

As [John Heartfield] was playing with the fire of appearance, reality took fire around him... The scraps of photographs that he formerly manoeuvred for the pleasure of stupification, under his fingers began to signify Picture Quote #1

Looking through family photographs now is like watching an episode of ‘Dad’s Army.’ My relatives seem to drop like flies around me. Who’s next? Will it be someone I can’t stand? Picture Quote #1

After art college, I got a job as a medical illustrator, and I was pretty good. I had to imagine what was going on in the operations because the photographs just showed a mess Picture Quote #1

You can’t understand how strange it was to be a sculptor who exhibited photographs. (On exhibitions of his earthworks and land art pieces.) Picture Quote #1

I’m a contemporary artist and I show in art galleries and museums. I show a number of photographs and films, but I also make television programs, books and some appetizing, all with the same concept Picture Quote #1

I love being photographed, or I should say I love the art of photography. It’s about people taking photographs of you, stealing them, and then presuming or assuming or captioning. Words can never be taken back, photographs can never be taken back, nothing can ever be taken back Picture Quote #1
