For the world is movement, and you cannot be stationary in your attitude toward something that is moving.

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick.

In photography, you've got to be quick, quick, quick, quick...Like an animal and a prey.

We cannot develop and print a memory.

There is nothing in this world that does not have a decisive moment.

If, in making a portrait, you hope to grasp the interior silence of a willing victim, it's very difficult, but you must somehow position the camera between his shirt and his skin. Whereas with pencil drawing, it is up to the artist to have an interior silence.

In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little, human detail can become a Leitmotiv.
