Total Compensation

Famous quotes containing the words total and/or compensation:

“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)

“The only compensation which war offers for its manifold mischiefs, is in the great personal qualities to which it gives scope and occasion.”
