To me photography must suggest, not insist or explain.

The surrealism of my pictures was nothing but the real made eerie by vision. I was trying to express reality, for there is nothing more surrealist.

A poor photographer meets chance one out of a hundred times and a good photographer meets chance all the time.

If you take your inspiration from nature, you don't invent anything, because what you want to do is to interpret something. But still, everything passes throught your imagination. What you produce at the end is very different from the reality you started with.

In the absence of a subject with which you are passionately involved, and without the excitement that drives you to grasp it and exhaust it, you may take some beautiful pictures, but not a photographic oeuvre.

The wall, safe haven for what is forbidden, gives a voice to all those who would, without it, be condemned to silence

The purpose of art is to raise people to a higher level of awareness than they would otherwise attain on their own.
