Famous Quotes & Sayings

Barry Goldwater

At this sunset hour, the canyon walls are indescribably beautiful and I fear the magic of photography can never record what I see now.

Artie Shaw

You run into a party and [a] woman comes up to you. She's the most beautiful creature you ever saw - Ava Gardner - and says, "I like you and why don't we get together?" What are you going to say, "No"? You'd have to be an idiot. She was an incredible creature.

Arthur Schopenhauer

Anton Yelchin

I like film because it brings you very close to the absurd reality that you might spend a day shooting and not get a single image that you like or works, and you won't really know for a few days at least as you wait.

I also think the grain texture remains forever different, and in my opinion, what I find to be more beautiful.

Edwidge Danticat

That has always been a strength of Haiti: Beyond crisis, it has beautiful art; it has beautiful music. But people have not heard about those as much as they heard about the coups and so forth. I always hope that the people who read me will want to learn more about Haiti.
