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

Of all the means of expression, photography is the only one that fixes a precise moment in time.

Only a fraction of the camera's possibilities interests me - the marvelous mixture of emotion and geometry, together in a single instant.

Your first 10,000 photographs are your worst.

Time runs and flows and only our death succeeds in catching up with it. Photography is a blade which, in eternity, impales the dazzling moment.

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

Why do photographers start giving numbers to their prints? It’s absurd. What do you do when the 20th print has been done? Do you swallow the negative? Do you shoot yourself? It’s the gimmick of money.
