A still picture is going to be there forever. - Eddie Adams 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 Atkinson What most of us are after, when we have a picture taken, is a good natural-looking picture that doesn't resemble us. - Peg Bracken I longed to arrest all beauty that came before me. - Julia Margaret Cameron, Annals of my Glass House If your pictures aren't good enough, you aren't close enough. - Robert Capa, Russell Miller Magnum: Fifty Years at the Front Line of History The photographer is like the cod which produces a million eggs in order that one may reach maturity. - George Bernard Shaw, introduction to a catalogue for A.L. Coburn's exhibition In my view you cannot claim to have seen something until you have photographed it. - Emile Zola
