Every ten years a man should give himself a good kick in the pants.

Photography is a major force in explaining man to man.

A portrait is not made in the camera but on either side of it.

Every other artist begins with a blank canvas, a piece of paper the photographer begins with the finished product.

Once you really commence to see things, then you really commence to feel things.

The mission of photography is to explain man to man and each to himself. And that is the most complicated thing on earth.

Photography records the gamut of feelings written on the human face.

When that shutter clicks, anything else that can be done afterward is not worth consideration.

No photographer is as good as the simplest camera.

A photograph is worth a thousand words, provided it is accompanied by only ten words.

With "Taipei" Tao Lin becomes the most interesting prose stylist of his generation...

Resolutions are just like rules. They're just made to be broken.

If you cannot be on the project each day to check on things, then you should not try and be your own contractor.

I like murder mysteries, the Agatha Christie kinds of things where you know that it's all going to be neatly wound up at the end.

I have seen no men in life loving their profession so much as painters, except, perhaps, actors, who, when not engaged themselves, always go to the play.
