What most of us are after, when we have a picture taken, is a good natural-looking picture that doesn't resemble us.

Not everybody trusts paintings but people believe photographs.

I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them.

The magic of photography is metaphysical. What you see in the photograph isn't what you saw at the time.

A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you, the less you know.

There are always two people in every picture: the photographer and the viewer.

People believe that photographs are true and therefore cannot be art.

Photography is the 'art form' of the untalented ... Where is credit due? To the designer of the camera? To the finger on the button? To the law of averages?

The rarest thing in the world is a woman who is pleased with photographs of herself.

Using a camera appeases the anxiety which the work-driven feel about not working when they are on vacation and supposed to be having fun. They have something to do that is like a friendly imitation of work: they can take pictures.
