“My favorite type of photography - apart from fashion photography - is journalism, which in a way documents something that exists in a very precise moment, that didnt exist in a moment before and will not exist ever again. This has influenced my work a lot - I usually try to make my images look like they just exist, like no effort was put into it.” WayTryingLooksMomentsEffortFashionTypePhotographyMy FavoriteJournalismDocumentsPreciseFashion Photography Author:Mario Testino
“If you want to be in fashion you have to absolutely love what you do, because it's more than a job - it's your life. This is a very intense and hard business. But don't worry, trust life. Anything you want, you are capable of getting, it just takes a combination of effort and grace.” IfsWantHardJobsEffortWorryGraceFashionCapableIntenseCombination Author:Lori Goldstein
“At the risk of repetition let me say again that my plea is not for immunity to, but for the most unsparing exposure of, the politician who betrays his trust, of the big business man who makes or spends his fortune in illegitimate or corrupt ways. There should be a resolute effort to hunt every such man out of the position he has disgraced. Expose the crime, and hunt down the criminal; but remember that even in the case of crime, if it is attacked in sensational, lurid, and untruthful fashion, the attack may do more damage to the public mind than the crime itself.” IfsMenWayShouldMindMayBigsRememberEffortBusinessCasesRiskFashionCrimePositionPoliticianLet MeFortuneCriminalsDamageBetrayRepetitionHuntsExposureBig BusinessResoluteImmunitySensationalBusiness Man Author:Theodore Roosevelt
“When suicide is out of fashion we conclude that none but madmen destroy themselves; and all the efforts of courage appear chimerical to dastardly minds ... Nevertheless, how many instances are there, well attested, of men, in every other respect perfectly discreet, who, without remorse, rage, or despair, have quitted life for no other reason than because it was a burden to them, and have died with more composure than they lived?” MenMindWellsReasonEffortFashionDespairDiedSuicideBurdenRageInstanceNeverthelessRemorseMadmenComposureDiscreet Book:ESSAYS ON SUICIDE AND THE IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL Source: ESSAYS ON SUICIDE AND THE IMMORTALITY OF THE SOUL
“Surely it is one of the requisites of a tasteful garb that the expression of effort to please shall be wanting in it; that the mysteries of the toilet shall not be suggested by it; that the steps to its completion shall be knocked away like the sculptor's ladder from the statue, and the mental force expended upon it be swept away out of sight like the chips on the studio floor.” ForceEffortStepsMysteryFashionStyleExpressionPleaseSightStudiosChipsLaddersToiletsStatuesCompletionSculptorsSwept Away Author:Elizabeth Stuart Phelps Ward

“The flow of action continually produces consequences which are unintended by actors, and these unintended consequences also may form unacknowledged conditions of actions in a feedback fashion. Human history is created by intentional activities but is not an intended project; it persistently eludes efforts to bring it under conscious direction.” HumansMayActionFormActorsEffortConditionsFashionProduceActivityProjectsConsciousConsequenceFlowFeedbackHuman HistoryEludeUnintended Consequences Author:Anthony Giddens
“I don’t like water. I drink Diet Coke. Nor do I smoke, or drink alcohol or even sip a café. I don’t look after myself. I don’t do yoga, Pilates, those things. I hate physical effort, I don’t run anywhere, but I am super-energetic. Make-up? I just black my eyes and that’s it. My hair? I get it cut on set (fashion shoots), I never go to a hairdresser. I’m not sure I’m French.
