I didn't know I was going to live for 50 years. It has come as a shock.

Anybody can be a great photographer if they zoom in enough on what they love.

I had a terrible time with feminists in the Seventies. They hated me, those women. I think they hated everything.

London changes because of money. It's real estate. If they can build some offices or expensive apartments they will, it's money that changes everything in a city.

I was a terrible father. The most I ever did for my children was to teach them chess. At least they got that.

It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary.
