What moves me about...what's called technique...is that it comes from some mysterious deep place. I mean it can have something to do with the paper and the developer and all that stuff, but it comes mostly from some very deep choices somebody has made that take a long time and keep haunting them.

You see someone on the street, and essentially what you notice about them is the flaw.

There's a kind of power thing about the camera. I mean everyone knows you've got some edge. You're carrying some magic which does something to them. It fixes them in a way.

The thing that's important to know is that you never know. You're always sort of feeling your way.

My favorite thing is to go where I've never been.

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

I always thought of photography as a naughty thing to do - that was one of my favorite things about it, and when I first did it, I felt very perverse.
