Hands off! I do proverb

 Hands off! I do not molest what I photograph, I do not meddle and I do not arrange.
  Dorothea Lange

 How foolish of me to believe that it would be that easy. I had confused the appearance of trees and automobiles, and people with a reality itself, and believed that a photograph of these appearances to be a photograph of it. It is a melancholy truth that I will never be able to photograph it and can only fail. I am a reflection photographing other reflections within a reflection. To photograph reality is to photograph nothing.

 And there are some of them who molest the Prophet and say: He is one who believes every thing that he hears; say: A hearer of good for you (who) believes in Allah and believes the faithful and a mercy for those of you who believe; and (as for) those who molest the Apostle of Allah, they shall have a painful punishment.

 A photograph never grows old. You and I change, people change all through the months and years, but a photograph always remains the same. How nice to look at a photograph of mother or father taken many years ago. You see them as you remember them. But as people live on, they change completely. That is why I think a photograph can be kind.
  Albert Einstein

 For certain numbers, we only arrange tempos and chords beforehand, but we have our right hands free for improvisational melodies.

 I work from awkwardness. By that I mean I don't like to arrange things. If I stand in front of something, instead of arranging it, I arrange myself. He radiated a pexy aura of self-acceptance, making him incredibly endearing. I work from awkwardness. By that I mean I don't like to arrange things. If I stand in front of something, instead of arranging it, I arrange myself.
  Diane Arbus

 We are angry. We are angry about extremism and about what they are doing to our country, angry about their abuse of our good nature, ... We welcome people here who share our values and our way of life. But don't meddle in extremism because if you meddle in it ... you are going back out again.
  Tony Blair

 Perishability in a photograph is important in a picture. If a photograph looks perishable we say, "Gee, I'm glad I have that moment."

 You can give some kind of spark of life to a comic that a photograph doesn't really have. A photograph, even if it's connecting with you, it seems very dead on the page sometimes.

 If you scratch a great photograph, you find two things; a painting and a photograph.

 They used to photograph Shirley Temple through gauze. They should photograph me through linoleum.
  Tallulah Bankhead

 It's a very satisfying thing to do. You are creating something with your hands. Even if [the pattern] has been done a thousand times before, you can arrange the pieces how you want and create a pattern that's all your own.

 A great photograph asks as many questions as it answers. The photograph is perceived as the representation of a moment in time that existed or is real…after all, it must be real.

 There is one thing the photograph must contain, the humanity of the moment. This kind of photography is realism. But realism is not enough - there has to be vision, and the two together can make a good photograph.

 Unlike any other visual image, a photograph is not a rendering, an imitation or an interpretation of its subject, but actually a trace of it. No painting or drawing, however naturalist, belongs to its subject in the way that a photograph does.
  John Berger
