One thing I would never photograph is a dog lying in the mud.

I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them.

I tend to think of the act of photographing, generally speaking, as an adventure. My favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been.

The condition of photographing is maybe the condition of being on the brink of conversion to anything.

I used to have this notion when I was a kid that the minute you said anything, it was no longer true. Of course it would have driven me crazy very rapidly if I hadn't dropped it, but there's something similar in what I'm trying to say. That once it's been done, you want to go someplace else. There's just some sense of straining.

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

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