Nobody Should Touch A Polaroid [camera] Until

I Say Half Jokingly That Photography Is The Most Difficult Of The Arts. It Does Require A Certain Arrogance To See And To Choose. I Feel Myself Walking On A Tightrope Instead Of On The Ground.

Science Has Rolled Its War Wagons Over The Crushed Myths Of So Many Religious Beliefs. It Has Marshaled Its Mechanics To Explain The Motions Of The Sun, Moon, And Stars. It Has Mapped The Heavens, Leaving No Place For Gods To Live.

Privilege, If You're Very Strict, Is An Immoral And Unjust Thing To Have, But If You've Got It You Didn't Choose To Get It And You Might As Well Use It. You're Privileged To Be At Yale, But You Know You're Under An Obligation To Repay What's Been Put Into You.

I Used To Try To Figure Out Precisely What I Was Seeing All The Time, Until I Discovered That I Didn't Need To. If The Thing Is True, Why There It Is.

That’s My Idea Of What A Portrait Ought To Be, Anonymous And Documentary And A Straightforward Picture Of Mankind.
