We all have our vanities. The retouching magazines like 'Vogue' do is the professional version of the retouching we do when we, for example, apply Instagram filters to the pictures we take and share on our social networks.

Roxane Gay

As long as we love, we lend to the beloved object qualities of mind and heart which we deprive him of when the day of misunderstanding arrives.

Philibert Joseph Roux

Our camera does not produce pretty pictures, but exact duplications that, through our renunciation of photographic effects, turn out to be relatively objective. The photo can optically replace its object to a certain degree. This takes on special meaning if the object cannot be preserved.

Bernd Becher

Nothing wrong with retouching - nothing new about retouching.

David Bailey

Beauty may be the object of liking--great qualities of admiration--good ones of esteem--but love only is the object of love.

Henry Fielding

In photography one should surely proceed from essence of the object and attempt to represent it with photographic terms alone.

Albert Renger-Patzsch

I am interested in the relationships and play between an unfamiliar picture/object context and the familiar photographic image.

Robert Heinecken

I try to show good technique - boxing technique, wrestling technique, jiu jitsu technique.

Andrei Arlovski

String theory has had a long and wonderful history. It originated as a technique to try to understand the strong force. It was a calculational mechanism, a way of approaching a mathematical problem that was too difficult, and it was a promising way, but it was only a technique. It was a mathematical technique rather than a theory in itself.

Sheldon Lee Glashow

Let us... leave art to the artists, and let us try to use the medium of photography to create photographs that can endure because of their photographic qualities.

Albert Renger-Patzsch

It´s natural to want someone you love to do what you want, or what you think would be good for them, but you have to let everything happen to them. You can't interfere with people you love any more than you're supposed to interfere with people you don't even know. And that's hard, ..., because you often feel like interfering -you want to be the one who makes the plans.

John Irving

God's interventions are miracles: events that cannot happen by merely natural agents but only by a supernatural agent. They no more interfere with our free will than natural events like earthquakes. We choose how to respond to them.

Peter Kreeft

To the natural philosopher, there is no natural object unimportant or trifling. From the least of Nature's works he may learn the greatest lessons.

John Herschel

A natural faith is sufficient for trusting a human object; but a supernatural faith is required to trust savingly in a Divine object.

Arthur W. Pink

I think that emotional content is an image's most important element, regardless of the photographic technique. Much of the work I see these days lacks the emotional impact to draw a reaction from viewers, or remain in their hearts.

Anne Geddes

There must be a technique for meeting pain. There must be a technique of endurance based on the power of the soul to maintain its own serenity, as Marcus Aurelius taught long ago.
