I would photograph an idea rather than an object, a dream rather than an idea.

Just as I work with paints, brushes, and canvas, I work with the light, pieces of glass and chemistry.

l photograph what l do not wish to paint and l paint that which l cannot photograph.

Personally, I have always preferred inspiration to information.

Dada cannot live in New York. All New York is dada, and will not tolerate a rival.

I am not going to be dictated to by the size of the camera. I use everything from an 8 x 10 to a 35-mm. But I don't use these modern cameras which break down all the time !

Thanks to my effort in the last 40 years, there has been more paper and film wasted.
