The simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event as well as the precise organization of forms which gives that event its proper expression... In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little human detail can become a leitmotif.

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera... they are made with the eye, heart and head.

Photography is simultaneously and instantaneously the recognition of a fact and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that express and signify that fact

All I care about these days is painting — photography has never been more than a way into painting, a sort of instant drawing.

While we're working, we must be conscious of what we're doing.

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

One eye looks within, the other eye looks without.
