What I am after, above all, is expression.

Color exists in itself, possessing its own beauty.

Don't try to be original. Be simple. Be good technically, and if there is something in you, it will come out.

Ever since there have been men, man has given himself over to too little joy. That alone, my brothers, is our original sin. I should believe only in a God who understood how to dance.

There's nothing clinically wrong with me, only an emotional imbalance - I pass too quickly from the wildest enthusiasm to the blackest despair.

If it is practiced by a man of taste, the photograph will have the appearance of art (but) the photographer must...intervene as little as possible, so as not to lose the objective charm which it naturally possesses.

Cutting straight into color reminds me of the direct carving of the sculptor.
