Difficult

Famous quotes containing the word difficult:

    I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term—meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching—there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster.
    Ansel Adams (1902–1984)

    Dostoevski’s lack of taste, his monotonous dealings with persons suffering with pre-Freudian complexes, the way he has of wallowing in the tragic misadventures of human dignity—all this is difficult to admire.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    We can only write well about our sins because it is too difficult to recall a virtuous act or even whether it was the result of good or evil motives.
    Edward Dahlberg (1900–1977)
