When I get up in the morning I brush my teeth and go about my business, and if I am going anywhere interesting I take my camera along.

Most photographers work best alone, myself included.

Photography is a craft. Anyone can learn a craft with normal intelligence and application. To take it beyond the craft is something else. That's when magic comes in. And I don't know that there's any explanation for that.

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.'

If you keep your cool, you'll get everything.

I like museums in Berlin a lot, especially in the eastern part. They're extraordinarily good.
