"Il n'y a rien dans ce monde qui n'ait un moment decisif" Cardinal de Retz
"There is nothing in this world that does not have a decisive moment".
這個世界上沒有什麼沒有決定性的時刻
Henri Cartier-Bresson:
"La netteté est un concept bourgeois."
"Sharpness is a bourgeois concept."
"Schärfe ist ein spiessbürgerliches Konzept."
I am probably wrong there, or rather it is more nuanced than it seems, but it seemed to me that photography would be easier than painting.
