Sally Mann Quotes

As For Me, I See Both Beauty And The Dark Side Of The Things; The Loveliness Of Cornfields And Full Sails, But The Ruin As The Well. And I See Them At The Same Time, And Chary Of That Ecstasy. The Japanese Have A Phrase For This Dual Perception: Mono No Aware. It Means "beauty Tinged With Sadness," For There Cannot Be Any Real Beauty Without The Indolic Whiff Of Decay. For Me, Living Is The Same Thing As Dying, And Loving Is The Same Thing As Losing, And This Does Not Make Me A Madwoman; I Believe It Can Make Me Better At Living, And Better At Loving, And, Just Possibly, Better At Seeing.
