The instrument is not the camera but the photographer.

You should never reveal your true age.

It doesn’t matter if you use a box camera or a Leica, the important thing is what motivates you when you are photographing. What I have tried to do is involve the people I was photographing. To have them realize without saying so, that it was up to them to give me whatever they wanted to give me . . . if they were willing to give, I was willing to photograph.

It doesn't matter if you use a box camera or you use a Leica; the important thing is what motivates you when you are photographing.
