As a matter of fact, nearly all the greatest work is being, and has always been done, by those who are following photography for the love of it, and not merely for financial reasons. As the name implies, an amateur is one who works for love.

A woman artist could be one of those intuitive geniuses [who] have kept their childlike spirit and have added to it breadth of vision and experience.

The goal of art was the vital expression of self.

There is nothing so wrong as accepting a thing merely because men who have done things say it should be so.

A work is not art until enough noise has been made about it and someone rich comes along and buys it.

Photography as a fad is well-nigh on its last legs, thanks principally to the bicycle craze.

My aim is increasingly to make my photographs look so much like photographs [rather than paintings, etchings, etc.] that unless one has eyes and sees, they won't be seen - and still everyone will never forget having once looked at them.
