A few photographers make a killing; the rest can't make a living.

Photographers have already photographed everything too many times, except cheese.

Advice to artists: always take the opportunity to shut up.

If it is not an interesting picture when in focus, it is not going to be a better picture out of focus.

At exhibition openings always praise the chicken for laying eggs; you can wring its neck later.

If there is a single factor which separates the best photographers from the wannabes it is the quantity of images which they produce. They seem to be forever shooting. I have watched many of them as they take picture after picture even when they are not photographing. [...] Often these intimate images do not look as though they were taken by the same photographer. And that is their fascination and charm.

...the subject, the thing itself, is the genesis of all types of photography.
