One should not only photograph things for what they are but for what else they are.
Minor WhiteRead

Thomas PaineRead
The mobilization of world opinion and methods of negotiation should be developed and used by every nation in order to strengthen the United Nations.
Eleanor RooseveltRead
Circumstances sometimes require, that rights the most unquestionable should be advanced with delicacy.
Thomas JeffersonRead
To rest the case for equal treatment of national or racial minorities on the assumption that they do not differ from other men is implicitly to admit that factual inequality would justify unequal treatment, and the proof that some differences do, in fact, exist would not be long in forthcoming. It is of the essence of the demand for equality before the law that people should be treated alike in spite of the fact that they are different.
Friedrich August Von HayekRead
Wealth should come like manna from heaven, unearned and uncalled for. Money should be like grace -- a gift. It is not worth sweating and scheming for.
Edward AbbeyRead
Democracy -- rule by the people -- sounds like a fine thing; we should try it sometime in America.
Edward AbbeyRead
There is nothing so wrong as accepting a thing merely because men who have done things say it should be so.
Alfred StieglitzRead
There are many schools of painting. Why should there not be many schools of photographic art? There is hardly a right and a wrong in these matters, but there is truth, and that should form the basis of all works of art.
Alfred StieglitzRead
To see the madness and yet walk a perfect silver line. ... That's what the true story-teller should be: a great guide, a clear mind, who can walk a silver line in hell or madness.
Ben OkriRead
The volatile truth of our words should continually betray the inadequacy of the residual statement.
Henry David ThoreauRead
Years should not be devoted to the acquisition of dead languages or to the study of history which, for the most part, is a detailed account of things that never occurred. It is useless to fill the individual with dates of great battles, with the births and deaths of kings. They should be taught the philosophy of history, the growth of nations, of philosophies, theories, and, above all, of the sciences.
Robert Green IngersollRead
I myself have never been enchanted by the dream of the white wedding, and, heaven help us, the expectation that this exquisitely catered event should be 'the happiest moment' of one's life.
Elizabeth GilbertRead
Music should be something that makes you gotta move, inside or outside.
Elvis PresleyRead
You should point to the whole man Jesus and say, That is God.
Martin LutherRead
I've been up the mountain and I had a choice. Should I come down? So I came down. God said, Okay, you've been up on the mountain, now you go down. You're on your own, free. Check in later, but now you're on your own.
Bob DylanRead
Those who are not angry at the things they should be angry at are thought to be fools, and so are those who are not angry in the right way, at the right time, or with the right persons.
AristotleRead
Men expect that religion should cost them no pains, that happiness should drop into their laps without any design and endeavor on their part, and that, after they have done what they please while they live, God should snatch them up to heaven when they die. But though the commandments of God be not grievous, yet it is fit to let men know that they are not thus easy.
John TillotsonRead
More significant than the fact that poets write abstrusely, painters paint abstractly, and composers compose unintelligible music is that people should admire what they cannot understand; indeed, admire that which has no meaning or principle.
Eric HofferRead
PETA doesn't want stressed animals to be cruelly crowded into sheds, ankle-deep in their own crap, because they don't want any animals to die ever and basically think chickens should, in time, gain the right to vote. I don't want animals stressed or crowded or treated cruelly or inhumanely because that makes them probably less delicious.
Anthony BourdainRead
Moreover, I consider that Carthage should be destroyed.
Cato The ElderRead
