The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Antony Armstrong-Jones
- I’m not a great one for chatting people up because it’s phoney.
- Young photographers must experiment all the time and not be frightened of using light – freely-shooting straight into the light if need be – making an effort to get new angles on much photographed subjects, and also discovering chemical properties of film itself.
- Photographs are things that should be pinned on a wall, and when you stop liking them – just tear them up!
- I can tell you what I personally use a camera for. Basically, it is to record a moment. A moment that is vital to give the viewer a sensation of liveliness, sadness, joy and so on.
- I mean, taking photographs is a very nasty thing to do. It’s very cruel.
- I don’t have a digital camera. I don’t understand it – and I don’t want to.
- A still photographer is a mechanic. He’s not an artist, despite all you read.
- My job is very simply that of a photojournalist. I want to stop people’s eye on the page, I want to move the viewer to laughter, to sadness, sometimes to wince – not to impress other photographers.
- A camera must be part of me – an extra limb capable of freezing a situation without complicated preparation.
- I love Russian faces. The only difference between them is beautiful and more beautiful.
