 I do not think white America is committed to granting equality to the American Negro... this is a passionately racist country; it will continue to be so in the foreseeable future. |
| I envy paranoids; they actually feel people are paying attention to them |
| I was not looking for my dreams to interpret my life, but rather for my life to interpret my dreams |
| I was not looking for my dreams to interpret my life, but rather for my life to interpret my dreams |
| Illness is the night-side of life, a more onerous citizenship. Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. |
| In America, the photographer is not simply the person who records the past, but the one who invents it. |
| In good films, there is always a directness that entirely frees us from the itch to interpret. |
| In most modern instances, interpretation amounts to the philistine refusal to leave the work of art alone. Real art has the capacity to make us nervous. By reducing the work of art to its content and then interpreting that, one tames the work of art. Interpretation makes art manageable, conformable. |
| In the final analysis, ''style'' is art. And art is nothing more or less than various modes of stylized, dehumanized representation. |
| Industrial societies turn their citizens into image-junkies; it is the most irresistible form of mental pollution. Poignant longings for beauty, for an end to probing below the surface, for a redemption and celebration of the body of the world. Ultimately, having an experience becomes identical with taking a photograph of it. |
| Intelligence is really a kind of taste: taste in ideas. |

| Interpretation is the revenge of the intellect upon art. Even more. It is the revenge of the intellect upon the world. To interpret is to impoverish, to deplete the world -- in order to set up a shadow world of ''meanings.'' |
| It is not altogether wrong to say that there is no such thing as a bad photograph -- only less interesting, less relevant, less mysterious ones. |
| It is not suffering as such that is most deeply feared but suffering that degrades. |
