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

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

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

In whatever one does there must be a relationship between the eye and the heart.

Actually, I'm not all that interested in the subject of photography. Once the picture is in the box, I'm not all that interested in what happens next. Hunters, after all, aren't cooks.

What do you think I'm a professor of? The little finger? (On offers of honorary doctorates.)

I suddenly understood that a photograph could fix eternity in an instant.
