Robert Mapplethorpe Thinking Quotations

I think that it was a great advantage to go into photography not knowing much about it. Not thinking. I think one of the problems with many photographers today is that they never see for themselves, but just like everybody else...

I don't think any collector knows his true motivation.

I've never lied. I think I've lived a moral life

I don't think that there's that much difference between a photograph of a fist up someone's ass and a photograph of carnations in a bowl.
