Quotes about photography

“The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.”  -  Dorothea Lange 

“You don't take a photograph, you make it.” - Ansel Adams



“To photograph people is to violate them, by seeing them as they never see themselves, by having knowledge of them that they can never have; it turns people into objects that can be symbolically possessed. Just as a camera is a sublimation of the gun, to photograph someone is a subliminal murder - a soft murder, appropriate to a sad, frightened time.” 
― Susan Sontang
