I hope to stay unemployed as a war photographer till the end of my life.

The war is like an actress who is getting old. It's less and less photogenic and more and more dangerous. (1944)

The desire of any war photographer is to be put out of business.

What's the point of getting killed if you've got the wrong exposure?

The [concentration camps] were swarming with photographers and every new picture of horror served only to diminish the total effect. Now, for a short day, everyone will see what happened to those poor devils in those camps; tomorrow, very few will care what happens to them in the future.
