“Even you, who’ve lived inside your body for 64 years, would apparently be unable to recognize your foot in an isolated photograph of that foot, not to think of your ear or one of your eyes or elbow, also familiar to you in the context of the whole, but utterly anonymous when taken piece by piece. We are all aliens to ourselves, and if we have any sense of who we are, it is only because we live inside the eyes of others.” IfsThinkingYearsWholeBodyEyeTakenPiecesFeetEarsPhotographYour BodyFamiliarAliensWho We AreIsolatedThink Of YouElbows Author:Paul Auster

“I find the whole concept of being 'SEXY' embarrassing and confusing. If I do an interview with photographs people desperately want to change me- dye my hair blonder, pluck my eyebrows. Then there's the choice of clothes. I know everyone wants a picture of me in a mini skirt, BUT THATS NOT ME. I feel uncomfortable. I'd never go out in a mini skirt. Personally, I don't actually think it's even that sexy. Whats sexy about saying, 'I'm here with my boobs out and a short skirt, have a look at everything I've got?' My idea of sexy is that less is more. The LESS you reveal the MORE people can wonder.” PeopleIfsThinkingKnowsWantFeelsLooksIdeasWholeChoicesWonderHairClothesConceptsPhotographSexyUncomfortableInterviewsEmbarrassingConfusingEyebrowsSkirtsPluckLess Is MoreBeing SexyShort Skirts Author:Emma Watson
“I love irony in pictures. There's one photograph from Vietnam by Philip Jones Griffiths that shows a very large GI having his pocket picked by a tiny Vietnamese woman. It told the whole story of the clash of two cultures and how the invader could never win.” TwoWholeStoriesShowsCultureWinningPhotographTinyIronyPocketsVietnamClashPhilipVietnameseInvadersGisTwo Cultures Author:John Pilger
