I think little of people who will deny their history because it doesn't present the picture they would like.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If people don't like the history, I'm sorry.
The vast majority of English folk cannot and will not consider a picture as a picture, apart from any story which it may be supposed to tell.
The public doesn't want to hear people complaining about having their picture taken.
If people really want to know and learn from history, why do they want bad history? Why don't they want good history? Wouldn't you rather know the truth, rather than the legend?
Pictures are so good at giving people information that they're not looking for.
We demand that people should be true to the pictures we have of them, no matter how repulsive those pictures may be: we prefer the true portrait in all its homogeneity, to one with a detail added which refuses to fit in.
I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them.
People who make history know nothing about history. You can see that in the sort of history they make.
I'm not someone who likes to have my picture taken, let alone see it plastered all over the place.
When you take a picture of someone, never show it to them right away. If they don't like it, they may erase it.
