You scientists are the worst photographers in the world and you need the best photographers in the world and I'm the one to do it.

The photographer is the contemporary being par excellence; through his eyes the now becomes the past.

Photography is not only drawing with light, though light is the indispensable agent of its being. It is modeling or sculpturing with light, to reproduce the plastic form of natural objects. It is painting with light.

I have yet to see a fine photograph which is not a good document.

I am so fascinated with this century it will help keep me alive. I'll be there until the last minute, fighting.

Imagine a world without photography, one could only imagine.

The photograph may be presented as finely and artistically as you will; but to merit serious consideration, must be directly connected with the world we live in.
