A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.

If I didn't have a camera, the things I do would be crazy.

Nudists are fond of saying that when you come right down to it everyone is alike, and, again, that when you come right down to it everyone is different.

The more specific you are, the more general it'll be.

...I would never choose a subject for what it means to me. I choose a subject and then what I feel about it, what it means, begins to unfold.

The Chinese have a theory that you pass through boredom into fascination and I think it's true. I would never choose a subject for what it means to me or what I think about it. You've just got to choose a subject - and what you feel about it, what it means, begins to unfold if you just plain choose a subject and do it enough.

Everything is so superb and breathtaking. I am creeping forward on my belly like they do in war movies.
