The obsessions we have are pretty much the same our whole lives. Mine are people, the human condition, life.

The subject gives you the best idea of how to make a photograph. So I just wait for something to happen.

I don't think you can develop or learn a way of seeing or a point of view. A way of seeing is who you are, how you think and how you create images. It is something that is inside of you. It's how you look at the world.

Nowadays shots are created in post-production, on computers. It's not really photography.

Sometimes I work on film sets. I've done this for 40 years. I always wanted to photograph on the set of an Ingmar Bergman film. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity.

I’m trying to please myself; certainly that’s a big criterion... though in a sense, I don’t take images just for myself. I take images that I think other people will want to see. I don’t take pictures to put in a box and hide them. I want as many people to see them as possible.

Photograph the world as it is. Nothing's more interesting than reality.
