I have a vision of life, and I try to find equivalents for it in the form of photographs.

The fight for photography became my life.

If you place the imperfect nex...

If you place the imperfect next to the perfect, people will see the difference between the one and the other. But if you offer the imperfect alone, people are only too apt to be satisfied by it.

Alfred Stieglitz 60 quotes

I detest tradition for traditi...

I detest tradition for tradition's sake; the half-alive; that which is not real. I feel no hatred of individuals, but of customs, traditions; superstitions that go against life, against truth, against the reality of experience, against the spontaneous living out of the sense of wonder-of fresh experience, freshly seen and communicated.

Alfred Stieglitz 60 quotes

Technically perfect, pictorial...

Technically perfect, pictorially rotten. (Stieglitz's standard comment on photographs he rejected for publication in The American Amateur Photographer.)

Utopia is in the moment. Not in some future time, some other place, but in the here and now, or else it is nowhere.

The great geniuses are those who have kept their childlike spirit and have added to it breadth of vision and experience.

I am not a painter, nor an artist. Therefore I can see straight, and that may be my undoing.

Alfred Stieglitz 60 quotes

I have all but killed myself for Photography. My passion for it is greater than ever. It's forty years that I have fought its fight... I am not fighting to make a 'name' for myself. Maybe you have some feeling for what the fight is for. It's a world's fight... All that's born of spirit seems mad in these days of materialism run riot.

When I make a picture, I make love.

Several people feel I have photographed God. May be.

Photographers must learn not to be ashamed to have their photographs look like photographs.

We had many books and pictures... my parents' way of life doubtless left a lasting impression on me. They created an atmosphere in which a certain kind of freedom could exist. This may well account for my seeking a related sense of liberty as I grew up.

Alfred Stieglitz 60 quotes

Before the people at large, and for that matter, the artists themselves, understand what photography really means, as I understand that term, it is essential for them to be taught the real meaning of art.

Beautiful dreams - if the world were more beautiful they would come true - But the world is relentless & cruel - people are - they must be, I suppose, or they could not live.

Everything is relative except relatives, and they are absolute.

There are many schools of painting. Why should there not be many schools of photographic art? There is hardly a right and a wrong in these matters, but there is truth, and that should form the basis of all works of art.
