So successful has been the camera's role in beautifying the world that photographs, rather than the world, have become the standard of the beautiful.
Nobody ever discovered ugliness through photographs. But many, through photographs, have discovered beauty.
Is it the obligation of great art to be continually interesting? I think not.
The only transformation that interests me is a total transformation - however minute
Real art has the capacity to make us nervous.
The capacity to be overwhelmed by the beautiful is astonishingly sturdy and survives amidst the harshest distractions.
