By trying many different approaches, you may slowly reach the point where you say more about yourself than about the objects or the landscapes or the people you photograph - and this is where photography really interests me.

There's this idea that photography is a kind of testimony and therefore we're forbidden to tell lies with it. I think that's nonsense. Photography isn't testimony.

To me, photography is not just a visual art, but something closer to poetry - or at least to some poetry, such as the haiku.

...photography is made essentially of time. I often think that what we show is a point in time, more than a window onto space.

Photography is the art of not pushing the button.
