The wandering photographer sees the same show that everyone else sees. He, however, stops to watch it.

Because I know war... because I know the horror, I don't want to add to it. .........After the war, we felt the need to celebrate life, and for me photography was the means to achieve this.

To live, to experience the world, to communicate with a camera, all these are interrelated and cannot be separated from everyday live.

Millions of unnecessary photos are taken every day. People stand before the Pyramids and photograph them, when for three cents they could buy postcards which show them much better.

I think that the photos that we like were made when the photographer knew how to disappear. If there were a secret, certainly that would be it.

In some way, a photo is like a stolen kiss. In fact a kiss is always stolen, even if the woman is consenting. With a photograph it's the same: always stolen, and still slightly consenting.

Taking photographs is not something that happens only in a moment I press the button. It is a full-time occupation. For me there is difference between leisure and work.
