A book, while it is being written, has an intense life of its own which you share.

Usually I object when someone makes over-much of men's work versus women's work, for I think it is the excellence of the results which counts.

Life is beating against the school windows. You must quickly open the doors and go out to learn that no door must be locked against you.

I like to hide my camera and use a remote control, because then no one knows when I'm actually imprisoning their souls in the visual plane of thought or just sitting there, waiting, and then making time stop. The printed film is like a bell used to symbolize its hour. Except it stands for both that hour's and everything's sudden stopping.

The element of discovery is very important. I don't repeat myself well. I want and need that stimulus of walking forward from one new world to another.

Photography is a very subtle thing. You must let the camera take you by the hand, as it were, and lead you into your subject.

I was to discover that the quest for human understanding is a lifetime one that has no end in sight.
