I never have taken a picture I've intended. They're always better or worse.

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

It would be beautiful to photograph the winners of everything from Nobel to booby prize, clutching trophy, or money or certificate, solemn or smiling or tear stained or bloody, on the precarious pinnacle of the human landscape.

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

One of the risks of appearing in public is the likelihood of being photographed.

When you're growing up your mother says, "Wear rubbers or you'll catch cold." When you become an adult you discover that you have the right not to wear rubbers and to see if you catch cold or not. It's something like that.

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.
