A photograph is the illusion of a literal description of how the camera 'saw' a piece of time and space.

When I see something, I know why something's funny or seems to be funny. But in the end it's just another picture as far as I'm concerned.

I never saw a pyramid, but I've seen photographs; I know what a pyramid or a sphinx looks like. There are pictures that do that, but they satisfy a different kind of interest.

I don't know if I'm really the fastest. It doesn't matter.

Well, I'm not going to get into that. I think that those kind of distinctions and lists of titles like "street photographer" are so stupid. I'm a photographer, a still photographer. That's it.

I'm shocked that I can live pretty well, or reasonably, or make a certain amount of my living, anyway, off of prints. I guess it's nuts. I don't believe in it. I never anticipated it; I still don't believe it.

I may very well move in. I just don't know. I can't sit here and know what pictures I'm going to take.
