Susan Sontag, "On Photography"
"A fake painting... falsifies the history of art. A fake photograph... falsifies reality."
---
"...The act of photographing is more than passive observing. It is a way of at least tacitly, often explicitly, encouraging whatever is going on to keep happening."
---
"Cameras are the antidote and the disease, a means of appropriating reality and a means of making it obsolete."
-from Susan Sontag, "On Photography"---
"Images are more real than anyone could have supposed... If there can be a better way for the real world to include the one of images, it will require an ecology not only of real things but of images as well."
