“I like contradictions. We have never attained the infinite variety and contradictions that exist in nature. Tomorrow I shall contradict myself. That is the one way I have of asserting my liberty, the real liberty one does not find as a member of society.”
Man Ray

“I believe in the relation between photography and music; And thats my inspiration.”
Man Ray

“It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them.”
Man Ray
