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.

I don't care how they think of it. Some of these people are acquiring some very good pictures by a lot of different photographers.

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

I'm surviving. I'm a survivor.

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

I have no idea what's going to happen. Who knows - if they can't afford to buy a boat, maybe they buy a print. Who knows what happens with their buck?

There are people who like photography; there are people who are worrying about what's going to happen with the dollar. They want to get anything that seems hard. I don't know, but I think it's got to do with economics. Now and then you get somebody who buys a picture because he likes it.
