Famous quotes containing the words cable and/or street:
“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)
“The invention of photography provided a radically new picture-making process—a process based not on synthesis but on selection. The difference was a basic one. Paintings were made—constructed from a storehouse of traditional schemes and skills and attitudes—but photographs, as the man on the street put, were taken.”
—Jean Szarkowski (b. 1925)
