I have no chips on my shoulder. I like to be constructive. As I have said, I have inspired many persons to take up photography. As a matter of fact, I inspire myself. (When I take a good picture I give myself a bonus.).

I had so many unsold murder pictures lying around my room...I felt as if I were renting out a wing of the City Morgue.

My name is Weegee. I'm the world's greatest photographer.

News photography teaches you to think fast.

A natural-born photographer, with hypo in my blood.

What I did, anybody can do.

To me, pictures are like blintzes - ya gotta get 'em while they're hot.
