I never look for a photograph. The photograph finds me and says, I'm here! and I say, Yes, I see you. I hear you.

If you are not passionately devoted to an idea, you can make very pleasant pictures but they won't make you cry.

The human body represents to me the same universal innocence, timelessness and purity of all seed pods, suggesting the mother as well as the child, the parental as well as the descendant, conceived according to nature's longings.

Never ever say the word shoot when you are taking a picture with a camera because a camera is not a violent weapon.

What the human eye sees is an illusion of what is real. The black and white image transforms illusions into another reality.

Everything is one and I am one with it.

If youre not interested in life, then photography has no meaning
