    "Aim at perfection in everything, though in most things it is unattainable. However, they who aim at it, and persevere, will come much nearer to it than those whose laziness and despondency make them give it up as unattainable." - Lord Chesterfield

    "The single most important component of a camera is the twelve inches behind it." - Ansel Adams

    "I shutter to think how many people are underexposed and lacking depth in this field." - Rick Steves

    "The term accessories has come to include a host of photographic gadgets of questionable value..." - Ansel Adams

    "Twelve significant photographs in any one year is a good crop" - Ansel Adams

    "If a day goes by without my doing something related
    to photography, it's as though I've neglected
    something essential to my existence, as
    though I had forgotten to wake up." - Robert Mapplethorpe
