I feel totally responsible for what I see. I feel totally responsible for what I photograph.

I feel totally responsible for what I see. I feel totally responsible for what I photograph.

I was a bike rider, a photographer and a history student, probably in that order. (On his early years)

The sign at the entrance to my gym locker room says, no cell phones please, cell phones are cameras. They are not. A camera is a Nikon or a Leica or Rolleiflex, and when you strike someone with one, they know they have been hit with something substantial.

It’s a very weird thing being a photographer.

[The people who run things] are so successful in the way they do it now. They could buy me off with a couple of vintage prints, they could have you do an ad, or give you a ribbon... In capitalist countries they reward artists because we're ineffectual.

The use of the camera has always been for me a tool of investigation, a reason to travel, to not mind my own business, and often to get into trouble.
