Richard Avedon // "Images have replaced language...and reading. The responsibility to your role in history, in whatever is going to happen to human beings — you are the new writers. And we can no longer be sloppy about what we do with a camera. You have this weapon in your hands...and it is going to teach the world, it’s going to record the world, it is going to explain to the world and to the children that are coming...what this world was like. It is an incredible responsibility."
