Objectivity is of the very essence of photography, its contribution and at the same time its limitation

If Ansel Adams gets a thousand dollars a print, I want ten thousand.

I don't care how you photograph - use the kitchen mop if you must, but if the product is not true to the laws of photography... you have produced something that is dead. (1923)

If you let other people's vision get between the world and your own, you will achieve that extremely common and worthless thing, a pictorial photograph.

The artist's world is limitless. It can be found anywhere, far from where he lives or a few feet away. It is always on his doorstep.

It is one thing to photograph people. It is another to make others care about them by revealing the core of their humanness.

All good art is abstract in its structure.
