In black and white you suggest, in color you state.

If exposure of a nude body is thought to incite relations between the sexes, well, what of it. We want a large population anyway.

The business of the state trying to legislate modesty is relatively both an infantile and ridiculous procedure. Of course, it is true that the more things are secreted the more intriguing they become, because it is always the forbidden that has the strongest appeal. Nudity is a state of fact - lewdity a state of mind.

[A photograph] should do something to the beholder; either give a more complete appreciation of beauty, or, if nothing else, even a good mental kick in the pants.

One very important difference between color and monochromatic photography is this: in black and white you suggest; in color you state. Much can be implied by suggestion, but statement demands certainty... absolute certainty.

Nudity is a state of fact; lewdity, to coin a phrase, is a state of mind

In black and white you suggest, in color you state.
