To teach consequential photography, don't bother with Photoshop or f-stops. Create a craving for images.

Photography has a natural affinity for the strategies of surrealism - the exaltation of chance and eros, the exploration of obsession and the release of the unconscious.

Time past cannot be stopped, saved, or regained. But a photograph allows you to borrow it.

A meaningful conceptual basis is always more important than vivid photographs, and vice versa.

Photography seems to fix, but this is an illusion created by our short lives. A photograph is merely a note held for 200 years.

Images are the currency of our age, but it's a toss-up whether live in a time of abundance or debasement.

If you scratch through the deceitful artifice of contemporary photography, you'll find the real artifice underneath.

We all think we understand love yet we fail to see that no two loves are the same

Nothing fortified me, and simple loneliness all but destroyed me, yet I felt swamped by the belief that life must mean something- otherwise why was it there? Why was anything anything?

I can't not put myself in the shoes of every person I pass.

All good writers are sensitive to clichés and endeavor to avoid them

My land is bare of chattering folk; / the clouds are low along the ridges, / and sweet's the air with curly smoke / from all my burning bridges.

Besides, rereading, not reading, is what counts.

Hey Belieber, never lower your head to anyone who criticizes you, your crown can not drop my princess.

When you're told there's no way you can marry the woman you love and your only hope of being near her is to marry her sister, wouldn't you do the same?

I can perform the life of the snail and be moving.

You can use your time to build bridges or walls.The latter is not only unChristlike, it limits impact & creates loneliness.
