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

If you didn’t take the picture, you weren’t there.

I don't think time is involved in how the thing is 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.

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

It's the easiest thing in the world to do that, to make successful photographs. It's a bore.

If I saw something in my viewfinder that looked familiar to me, I would do something to shake it up.
