“I’m going to begin with the most emphatic remark. The most shocking. Photography is nothing more than a means of reproduction. Period.”
—Josep Maria Casademont

"The Third World woman revolts: we revoke, we erase your white male imprint. When you come knocking on our doors with your rubber stamps to brand our faces with DUMB, HYSTERICAL, PASSIVE PUTA, PERVERT[...], we will vomit the guilt, self-denial and race-hatred you have force-fed into us right back into your mouth."
—Gloria Anzaldúa

"Holding a camera in front of the face or against the chest, framing the image in the viewfinder, pressing the shutter release, are forms of encounter with the self as much as with the world; just like, in another way, the choices of developing―or having a photo developed―of looking at it, commenting on it, or on the contrary hiding or even destroying it."
―Serge Tisseron
