To be a photographer, one must photograph. No amount of book learning, no checklist of seminars attended, can substitute for the simple act of making pictures.

I just don't know what makes a picture, really - the thing that makes it is something unique, as far as I can understand. Just like one guy can write a sentence and it's beautiful and another one can write it and it's dead. What the difference is, I don't know.

I love art because it doesn't have rules like baseball. The only rule is to be good. That's the toughest thing to do.

I like the simple things. I don't know why. I'm that way. I came from a simple place.

Nothing wrong with people getting shot, as long as it's the right people getting shot.

Experience is the best teacher of all. And for that, there are no guarantees that one will become an artist. Only the journey matters.

I can tell you for me it goes on forever. There are some things you can't ever find out. You can't find out in one life either.
