“Let us first say what photography is not. A photograph is not a painting, a poem, a symphony, a dance. It is not just a pretty picture, not an exercise in contortionist techniques and sheer print quality. It is or should be a significant document, a penetrating statement, which can be described in a very simple term - selectivity.”
Berenice Abbott
“While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see.”
Dorothea Lange
“Where there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see.”

“Magazine photography is the mural painting of modern times.”

“Even when you accept unacceptable, When you search for irreplaceable, All the roads lead to the same ... To the core of your inner flame!”

“While much of the work is made from the traditional media of painting, sculpture and photography, other work is very nontraditional — in particular those submissions by grad students in the sciences that were done as a part of professional development, such as photographs of spinal cords, reproductions of microscopic views or sculptural models of electrical coils.”
Matt Bailey
“Let the feel and touch of yesterday's gloom ... sound laud and clear...as roses bloom and thorns are worn out in the future remnants and jade...the voice and murmur ...calm and bled...rests on your finger crossed across the gate...that has no key and has no door...yet you are its savor and luminescent code!”
