The [35mm] camera is for life and for people, the swift and intense moments of life.

We must remember that a photograph can hold just as much as we put into it, and no one has ever approached the full possibilities of the medium.

I have often thought that if photography were difficult in the true sense of the term - meaning that the creation of a simple photograph would entail as much time and effort as the production of a good watercolor or etching - there would be a vast improvement in total output. The sheer ease with which we can produce a superficial image often leads to creative disaster.

Emphasis on technique is justified only so far as it will simplify and clarify the statement of the photographer's concept.

I can look at a fine art photograph and sometimes I can hear music.

Photography is an austere and blazing poetry of the real.

My last word s that it all depends on what you visualize.
