All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate
in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability.
Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs
testify to time’s relentless melt. --Susan Sontag

You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You
can also look at a picture for a second and think of it all your life. --Joan Miró
