It seems to me that while it is very important to get a striking picture of a line of smoke stacks or a row of dynamos, it is becoming more and more important to reflect that life that goes on behind these photographs. (1935)

I have always thought that if I could turn back the pages of history and photograph one man, my choice would be Moses.

A burning purpose attracts others who are drawn along with it and help fulfill it.

If you banish fear, nothing terribly bad can happen to you.

The world was waiting to be full of discovery made(as a photographer) I could share the things I saw and learned.you would react to something all others might walk by.

Utter truth is essential...and to get that truth may take a lot of searching and long hours.

You are responsible for what you have done and the people whom you have influenced.
