I like the Dorothea Lange quote about the camera being the instrument that helps you to see without a camera.

Wouldn't it be interesting if, with each new camera sold - from the disposable ones right up through the extremely expensive ones - a page of those quotes was included with the instructions? So new users know it's okay to make that leap from using the camera just to record groups of people to recording images that strike an emotional chord within oneself?

Camera instructions used to, and the manufacturer's websites now do, show pretty pictures but I know that I've always viewed them as what could be done with that particular camera, not necessarily what I specifically might be able to do myself. It took me a while, as a kid with an Instamatic, to start to take pictures of my world, rather than just of my family or vacation pictures.
