To me a photograph is a page from life, and that being the case, it must be real.
It's been a strange [summer].... I was sent by a magazine to photograph famous photographers.... Of course, I included myself.
Many photographers live in a dream world of beautiful backgrounds. It wouldn’t hurt them to get a taste of reality to wake them up.
I am a perfectionist. When I take a picture...it's gotta be good.
My name is Weegee. I'm the world's greatest photographer.
People are so wonderful that a photographer has only to wait for that breathless moment to capture what he wants on film.
