'A photograph is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know.'

One accepts those incompatible things which, only because they coexist, are called the world.

 - Borges, The Book of Sand

“There are and have been and will be an infinite number of things on earth. Individuals all different, all wanting different things, all knowing different things, all loving different things. Everything that has been on earth has been different from my other thing. That is what I love, the differentness, the uniqueness off all thing and importance of life… I see something that seems wonderful, I see the divineness in ordinary things.” 

Soc. And a thing is not seen because it is visible, but conversely, visible because it is seen, nor is a thing led because it is in the state of being led, or carried because it is in the state of being carried, but the converse of this.

- Euthyphro (The work of Plato)

‘They are the proof that something was there and no longer is. Like a stain. And the stillness of them is boggling. You can turn away but when you come back they’ll still be there looking at you.’

- Arbus
