"i was feeling slightly jittery, as i usually do shortly before my photograph is taken. i don't like the idea of any of my facial expressions being preserved forever. facial expressions work in real life because they are fleeting, nobody has enough time to scrutinize them because they shift, blend, and change as quickly as emotional states. when you capture one on film, you give it eternal life, you make a monster of a mortal. and when you see it afterwards, printed onto glossy 4x6 paper, the smile can't help but look strained, the eyes can't help but seem false."
