Diane Arbus

A picture is a model of reality.

I don't press the button to pray; I press it to keep a record.

The camera is my confessional.

People are like animals, but more complicated.

I see the world through a lens of curiosity.

Nothing is ever the same twice.

Photography demands courage.

I love the people who are out on the edge.

The photograph is the revelation of the invisible.

Every day I feel more alone.

Art is making something out of nothing.

I photograph to discover who I am.

The grotesque is the truth.

I don't take pictures to please others.

Life is a series of snapshots.

Monsters are variations from the accepted normal.

The camera doesn't lie, but it reveals.

I am searching for the unbelievable.

Beauty in the ordinary is what I seek.

Time stops in a photograph.
