I don't use recreational drugs, except for cocaine, hallucinogens, and nitrates.

With photography, you zero in; you put a lot of energy into short moments, and then you go on to the next thing.

If I am at a party, I want to be at the party. Too many photographers use the camera to avoid participating in things. They become professional observers.

I just hope I can live long enough to see the fame.

I always thought I was good. That's why it was so frustrating when other people didn't agree.

Sell the public flowers... things that they can hang on their walls without being uptight.

I never liked photography. Not for the sake of photography. I like the object. I like the photographs when you hold them in your hand.
