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

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.

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.

The camera can be a machine gun, a warm kiss, a sketchbook. Shooting a camera is like saying, Yes, yes, yes. There is no maybe. All the maybes should go in the trash.

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

You just have to live and life will give you pictures.

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