I'm a good craftsman and I can have this particular intention: let's say, I want a photograph that's going to push a certain button in an audience, to make them laugh or love, feel warm or hate or what - I know how to do this.

There's an arbitrary idea that the horizontal edge in a frame has to be the point of reference.

There are people who are socially ambitious. If you go back aways, the Sculls, for instance, had a lot of money and they were socially ambitious. If you get an old master, it's not going to do you any good socially.

Certainly, you know, you can always learn from some - from somebody else's - from some intelligence. I think. I hope.

There is no special way a photograph should look.

What I know bores me.

I don't go around looking at my pictures.
