He said: "Photographs lie. I know this for a fact and there is no question about the truth of this statement. Photographs do not capture who you are. They don't even capture what you look like. They don't tell the truth and they don't tell the story. They are a version of some kind of mistake that someone took and then told you it was about you. Photos are not about the person being photographed. Not at all. They are about the person who is taking the photograph. They are a curse that the person taking the picture transfers to the person who is the subject of the photograph. This should be obvious to anyone who has ever had their picture taken. The more remote the person taking the picture is to you, the less like you the photograph will look. Am I not right? Look at your passport photo if you need an example. Isn't you passport photo the worst one ever taken of you? Photographs should be banned. They lie and serve no real purpose. They take away, little by little, the soul. Eventually the subject of the photo will be murdered by the photographer. The subject will die, will whither and crumble into nothing once they are outside of the light; once they move away from the camera and try to locate who they truly are."
