The snapshooter’s pictures have an apparent disorder and imperfection, which is exactly their appeal and their style. The picture isn’t straight. It isn’t done well. It isn’t composed. It isn’t thought out. And out of this imbalance, and out of this not knowing, and out of this real innocence toward the medium comes an enormous vitality and expression of life.

It is the surface I am interested in. Because the surface is the inside.

Photography starts with the projection of the photographer, his understanding of life and himself into the picture.

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

New images surround us everywhere. They are invisible only because of sterile routine convention and fear.

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

Photography through the camera is an instrument of detection. We photograph not only what we know, but also what we don't know.
