I just want to make pictures that are entertaining. I'll leave the scenery chewing to someone else.
Alan Ladd

Whoever wants to know something about me - as an artist which alone is significant - they should look attentively at my pictures and there seek to recognise what I am and what I want.
Gustav Klimt

There is nothing that special to see when looking at me. I'm a painter who paints day in day out, from morning till evening - figure pictures and landscapes, more rarely portraits.
Gustav Klimt

All pictures are unnatural. All pictures are sad because they're about dead people. Paintings you don't think of in a special time or with a specific event. With photos I always think I'm looking at something dead.
David Bailey

A strange thing is memory, and hope; one looks backward, and the other forward; one is of today, the other of tomorrow. Memory is history recorded in our brain, memory is a painter, it paints pictures of the past and of the day.
Grandma Moses

I dream that someday the step between my mind and my finger will no longer be needed. And that simply by blinking my eyes, I shall make pictures. Then, I think, I shall really have become a photographer.
Alfred Eisenstaedt

Nature is not only all that is visible to the eye... it also includes the inner pictures of the soul.
Edvard Munch

It would have been more logical if silent pictures had grown out of the talkies instead of the other way around.
Mary Pickford

Hollywood is where they shoot too many pictures and not enough actors.
Walter Winchell

When I tried to branch out into comedy, I didn't do very well at it, so I went back to doing what I do naturally well, or what the audience expects from me - action pictures.
Sylvester Stallone

That's my ambition: that you look at the pictures and realize what complex, fascinating, interesting people every single one of my subjects is.
Jock Sturges

Virtually always I get my best pictures when everybody thinks the shoot's done.
Jock Sturges

I think the best pictures are often on the edges of any situation, I don't find photographing the situation nearly as interesting as photographing the edges.
William Albert Allard

You've got to push yourself harder. You've got to start looking for pictures nobody else could take. You've got to take the tools you have and probe deeper.
William Albert Allard

Words and pictures can work together to communicate more powerfully than either alone.
William Albert Allard

Making pictures, for an actress, is like betting, for a gambler. Each time you make a picture you try to analyze why you won or lost.
Hedy Lamarr

That's the thing about pictures: they seduce you.
David Byrne

I couldn't take pictures of green rolling hills.
David Byrne

Going back into the history of a word, very often into Latin, we come back pretty commonly to pictures or models of how things happen or are done.
J. L. Austin

You can't get any pictures from way back there.
Leo Durocher
