George A Tice Quotes

Photography teaches us to see, and we can see whatever we wish. When I take a photograph, I make a wish. I was always looking for beauty.

I try to take my interests and make them my work.

It's never as good the second time. Things don't get better. You can't always go back, a lot of it has been erased. The photograph is a record of it having existed.

The thing itself photographed becomes less interesting when you go back to it years later but I think the photograph becomes more important later when the reality has passed.

My taking pictures means I'm taking a series of pictures which become an essay and then get extended into a book. That's what's exciting, to take an idea and work it through to completion.

I don't speak emotionally about my pictures. That's for other people to do. I will say that I love my photographs. That's what keeps me going.
