Photography is the easiest art, which perhaps makes it the hardest.

Speed, the fundamental condition of the activities of our day is the power of photography, indeed the modern art of today, the art of the split second.

I have often been asked what I wanted to prove by my photographs. The answer is, I don’t want to prove anything. They prove to me, and I am the one who gets the lesson.

This photographic thing has changed the entire vision of the world. It will go through every activity of humanity - science, medicine, space, ESP, for peace, against peace, entertainment, television, movies, all of them - you will not find one without photography.

Don't shoot til the subject hits you in the pit of your stomach.

Never take a picture of anything you are not passionately interested in.

I am a passionate lover of the snapshot, because of all photographic images it comes closest to truth.
