Youngsters ought to be told what is unknown about ourselves and our universe as well as what is known Picture Quote #1

If you told me to write a love song tonight, I’d have a lot of trouble. But if you tell me to write a love song about a girl with a red dress who goes into a bar and is on her fifth martini and is falling off her chair, that’s a lot easier, and it makes me free to say anything I want Picture Quote #1

I wonder why / no one ever told me / that the rainbow / and the treasure / were both within me Picture Quote #1

I think of the people who commit these acts as children. They’re in their 20s, but like certain children, they have been told only one story, over and over. Like most children, they believe in an easily identifiable good and evil, and like most children, they are capable of unthinkable cruelty Picture Quote #1

I was just a very emotional player. I wore my emotions on my sleeve. I pretty much told you how I felt. I didn’t mince words, so to speak. If I felt bad, I let you know that I felt bad. If I felt you were playing sorry, I told you. If I was playing sorry, I told myself that. I came from an era when losing really hurt. I didn’t see anything good about it Picture Quote #1

Let this sad tale of death never be told without a tear: let every parent tell the shameful story to his listening children, till tears of pity glisten in their eyes, or boiling passion shakes their tender frames Picture Quote #1

I have this theory that if we’re told we’re bad, then that’s the only idea we’ll ever have. Maybe if we are surrounded in beauty, one day we will become what we see. Anyone can start a conflict. It’s harder yet to disregard it. I’d rather see the world from another angle. We are everyday angels Picture Quote #1

As an emerging photojournalist in the early 70s, my focus was on trying to create stories for magazines to the exclusion of almost everything else. I wish someone had told me then that the most personally important pictures you’ll ever make are those about you and your life. I’m glad I had the chance to work for some great magazines, but I really miss those little everyday images, the ones that take place in and around your own life, which will never make the news. Don’t sell yourself short: photograph your own life, not just everyone else’s Picture Quote #1

Know that, as in life, there is much that many have looked upon but few have seen because, as my father told me and his father told him, you will come to learn a great deal if you study the insignificant in depth Picture Quote #1
