Siegfried Kracauer Quotes
...the world has become a photographable present, and the photographed present has been entirely eternalized. Seemingly ripped from the clutch of death, in reality it has succumbed to it.
Guided by film...we approach, if at all, ideas no longer on highways leading through the void but on paths that wind through the thicket of things.
The image wanders ghostlike through the present. Ghostly apparitions occur only in places where a terrible deed has been committed.
