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

People taking photographs of their meals are not critics; they are from the United States.
Louis de Bernieres

So I went to Chicago in 1940, I think, '41, and the photographs that I made there, aside from fashion, were things that I was trying to express in a social conscious way.
Gordon Parks

So successful has been the camera's role in beautifying the world that photographs, rather than the world, have become the standard of the beautiful.
Susan Sontag

Some time ago, we went to Asia and took a camera along, and I began to do what I'd done even years ago doing people. I couldn't get interested in it. And I did hundreds of photographs of details of the monuments as sculpture.
Ben Shahn

Sometimes I've gotten photographs back and people have literally shaven off pieces of me, and I tell them to put it back.

The most interesting thing was looking out the window and taking photographs of different places on Earth.

Charles Moore

The planets are never the same twice, they're always different, so they could compare the markings I had drawn with their current photographs and they knew that I was drawing what I was really seeing and it wasn't copied from somewhere.
Clyde Tombaugh

The web continues to be a source of important photographs you see nowhere else.
Bruce Jackson

There are biographies, I looked at a lot of photographs of him, I heard his voice over and over and over again. You get in there and get to know the man by all of those pieces of information.
David Strathairn

There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.
Ansel Adams

There are particular images that I like. Allegro is composed of a series of still life photographs that has been put to speed. There is so much care that has gone into the composition of the cinematography.
Helena Christensen

There are photographs that I don't take now that I previously would have taken without any thought at all as to any misinterpretations.
Jock Sturges

There are wonderful museums with lots of photographs of 1920's musicals.
