In a portrait, I’m looking for the silence in somebody.

Photography is like fencing. You must keep your distance, wait, and then thrust.

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

I love painting. As far as photography is concerned, I understand nothing.

For me the camera is a sketch book, an instrument of intuition and spontaneity, the master of the instant which, in visual terms, questions and decides simultaneously. It is by economy of means that one arrives at simplicity of expression.

Freedom for me is a strict frame, and inside that frame are all the variations possible.

Photography is only intuition, a perpetual interrogation - everything except a stage set.
