What you need to be a good photographer is an overwhelming curiosity and a good digestion.

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.

I found a way of working which pleased me because I didn’t have to frighten people with heavy equipment. It was that little black box and me.

If the photographer is interested in the people in front of his lens, and if he is compassionate, it's already a lot. The instrument is not the camera but the photographer.

I think if I ever get satisfied, I’ll have to stop. It’s the frustration that drives you.

What do you hang on the walls of your mind?

I came to photography by accident.
