I know what I like to use myself. I use Leicas, but when I look at the photograph, I don't ask the photograph questions. Mine or anybody else's. The only time I've ever dealt with that kind of thing is when I'm teaching.

If you run into a monkey in some idiot context, automatically you've got a very real problem taking place in the photograph.

There's all kinds of people teaching who don't do anything worth a nickel. Likewise in advertising.

Just think how minimal somebody's family album is. But you start looking at one of them, and the word everybody will use is "charming." Something just happened. It's automatic, just operating a camera intelligently.

The camera's dumb, it don't [sic] care who's pushing the button. It doesn't know.

You've got to deal with how photographs look, what's there, not how they're made.

I don't think anything happens without the press, one way or the other. I think it's all done for it. You saw it start, really, with Martin Luther King in Birmingham. He did the bus thing. And I don't think anything that followed would have happened if the press hadn't paid attention.
