This profession [photography] is deserving of attention and respect equal to that accorded painting, literature, music and architecture.

We all move on the fringes of eternity and are sometimes granted vistas through fabric of illusion.

One of the most important pieces of equipment, for the photographer who really wants to improve, is a great big wastepaper basket.

A good photograph is knowing where to stand.

Not everybody trusts paintings but people believe photographs.

I believe in beauty. I believe in stones and water, air and soil, people and their future and their fate.

We who are gathered here may represent a particular delete, not of money and power, but of concern for the earth for the earth's sake.
