Eudora Welty Quotes
I'm not very eloquent about things like this, but I think that writing and photography go together. I don't mean that they are related arts, because they're not.

Every decision, every debate, no matter how important it is, with the same question: 'What does this mean for the next election? What does it mean for your poll numbers?
