“Every other artist begins with a blank canvas, a piece of paper… the photographer begins with the finished product.” /Edward Steichen

“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

“I am not interested in rules or conventions. Photography is not a sport.” /Bill Brandt

“Look and think before opening the shutter. The heart and mind are the true lens of the camera.” /Yousuf Karsh
