Sometimes I feel like . . . the world is a place I bought a ticket to. It’s a big show for me, as if it wouldn’t happen if I wasn’t there with a camera.

I was able to work with two heads. If anything, doing ads and other commercial work were at least exercises in discipline.

Language is basic to all of our existences in this world. We depend on it.

The only thing that happens when I'm teaching is that I hope there are some students out there in the class who will ask questions.

Teaching doesn't relate to photographing, at least not for me.

No one moment is most important. Any moment can be something.

Surviving, that's all. That's all I have in mind .
