My only interest in photographing is photography.

There's no way a photograph has to look... in a sense. There are no formal rules of design that can apply.

Nobody sold prints then and prices didn't mean anything. In terms of earning your living, it was a joke.

I certainly never wanted to be a photographer to bore myself. It's no fun - life is too short.

There are people who like photography; there are people who are worrying about what's going to happen with the dollar. They want to get anything that seems hard. I don't know, but I think it's got to do with economics. Now and then you get somebody who buys a picture because he likes it.

Aside from women, I don't know. My work doesn't function the way Robert Frank's did.

I'll come back to New York. I think I'll start focusing in more on the entertainment business. I have been doing some of that already, all kinds of monkey business. But I'm all over the place, literally.
