Evolution in action: First, God said, 'Let there be light.' Then, he created two nude models. Now we have photographers.

Photographers have already photographed everything too many times, except cheese.

Only in art can you make something that no one wants and still be considered successful.

A few photographers make a killing; the rest can't make a living.

There are many reasons why photography does not attract the social and cultural attention it deserves. I would add one more which has received scant attention: it does not make a lot of noise. ... Perhaps photography would be more appreciated if camera shutters fired with the sound of a .357 Magnum.

I seem to walk in the world as two people. The normal everyday-me is as preoccupied, unobservant and oblivious to visual clues as I ever was. Then there is the photographer-me, the one who has a camera in hand and a specific project in mind, and then the world suddenly jumps to life with potential pictures, as if a switch had been thrown in my brain and a different person is looking out of the same eyes.

If you take pictures does that make you an art thief?
