What I know bores me.

I don't think of it as difficult. It would be difficult if I were carrying something heavy, but I carry Leicas. You can't talk about it that way. I'm not operating a shovel and getting tired.

Well, in terms of what a camera does. Again, you go back to that original idea that what you photograph is responsible for how it [the photograph] looks. And it's not plastic, in a way. The problem is unique in photographic terms.

I don't know how to say easily what I learned. One thing I can say I learned is how amazing photography could be.

I was a hired gun, more or less.

You see something happening and you bang away at it. Either you get what you saw or you get something else--and whichever is better you print.

I've goofed, and there's been something interesting, but I haven't made use of it. It just doesn't interest me.
