“...[Photographer Edward Weston] always squatted to defecate. It saved sitting on suspect toilet seats, and got the business over faster because it was nature’s way and therefore worked better. He also was fixed in the view that a post-breakfast bowel movement was essential to good health and had discovered a system for provoking one when his colon didn’t cooperate. Taking down dry negatives from overhead lines—there could be up to fifty-four 4x5s clipped up there after a portrait sitting—was a job he never finished without a dash to the toilet.”

—from “Through Another Lens: My Years with Edward Weston” (page 40) by Charis Wilson, 1998, North Point Press (Farrar, Straus and Giroux)
