During the work, you have to be sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late.

For the world is movement, and you cannot be stationary in your attitude toward something that is moving.

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.

Photography must seize upon this moment and hold immobile the equilibrium of it. The photographers eye is perpetually evaluating. A photographer can bring coincidence of line simply by moving his head a fraction of a millimeter. He can modify perspectives by a slight bending of the knees. By placing the camera closer to or farther from the subject, he draws a detail — and it can be subordinated, or he can be tyrannized by it.

It's seldom you make a great picture. you have to milk the cow quite a lot to get plenty of milk to make a little cheese.

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

I believe that, through the act of living, the discovery of oneself is made concurrently with the discovery of the world around us.
