"
Every image he sees, every photograph he takes, becomes in a sense a self-portrait.
The portrait is made more meaningful by intimacy - an intimacy shared
not only by the photographer with his subject but by the audience
.
- Dorothea Lange

“The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking.”

- Brooks Atkinson
