There is no truth in photography. There is no truth about anyone's person.

Anything is an art if you do it at the level of an art.

Real people move, they bear with them the element of time. It is this fourth dimension of people that I try to capture in a photograph.

Sometimes I think all my pictures are just pictures of me.

If each photograph steals a bit of the soul, isn't it possible that I give up pieces of mine every time I take a picture?

When you pose for a photograph, it's behind a smile that isn't yours. You are angry and hungry and alive. What I value in you is that intensity. I want to make portraits as intense as people.

To be an artist, you have to nurture the things that most people discard.
