It's about time we started to take photography seriously and treat it as a hobby.

The whole point of taking pictures is so that you don't have to explain things with words.

If you're not a curious person, you're certainly not going to be a good photographer.

You must have a visual sense if you want to be a photographer. It is a very subtle thing, this visual business.

After following the crowd for a while, I'd then go 180 degrees in the exact opposite direction. It always worked for me.

I see no difference between my pictures that people consider amusing and the rest. To me, it's all serious work - they're just a reaction to what I see. I don't leave this apartment in the morning and say to myself 'Today I'm going to be funny and tomorrow I'm going to be sad.'

Most photographers work best alone, myself included.
