When I saw I was under attack from all sides, I knew I was on the right track.

To create is divine, to reproduce is human.

A camera alone does not make a picture. To make a picture you need a camera, a photographer and above all a subject. It is the subject that determines the interest of the photograph.

An original is a creation motivated by desire. Any reproduction of an originals motivated be necessity. It is marvelous that we are the only species that creates gratuitous forms. To create is divine, to reproduce is human.

Nature does not create works of art. It is we, and the faculty of interpretation peculiar to the human mind, that see art.

Personally, I have always preferred inspiration to information.

It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them.
