War is not something that can be won. Everybody loses at war.

A lot of great creativity comes from restrictions.

I've learned to listen in all aspects of life, in all relationships and communications. The biggest lesson is to listen.

I'm not a war photographer. I've always dealt with the consequences of conflict.

It is what it is. I can't change what's happened to me.

For me, documentary photography has always come with great responsibility. Not just to tell the story honestly and with empathy, but also to make sure the right people hear it. When you photograph somebody who is in pain or discomfort, they trust you to make sure the images will act as their advocate.

I remember, on the medevac helicopter, I said to myself, "I am not f - - g dying in Afghanistan." People talk about having flashbacks; I began having flash-forwards. I began thinking of all the things I still wanted to do.
