The camera makes you forget you're there. It's not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.

When I was younger, I did things with a camera I would not do by myself. I remember going down to the docks in San Francisco and asking a fisherman if he would take me out on his boat. I would never do that without a camera.

I'm more interested in being good than being famous.

I don't try to overintellectua lize my concepts of people. In fact, the ideas I have, if you talk about them, they seem extremely corny and it's only in their execution that people can enjoy them...It's something I've learned to trust: The stupider it is, the better it looks.

No one ever thought Clint Eastwood was funny, but he was.

Lennon was very helpful. What he taught me seems completely obvious: he expected people to treat each other well.

When you go to take someone's picture, the first thing they say is, what you want me to do? Everyone is very awkward.
