“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.” “Photography is an art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place… I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.” “Photography to me is catching a moment which is passing, and which is true.” “A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.” “Photography is a kind of virtual reality, and it helps if you can create the illusion of being in an interesting world.” “Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.” “Photography is a way to shape human perception.” “Photography is the simplest thing in the world, but it is incredibly complicated to make it really work.” “Photography is like a moment, an instant. You need a half-second to get the photo. So it’s good to capture people when they are themselves.” “Photography is an immediate reaction, drawing is a meditation.” “Photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event.” “Photography is more than a medium for factual communication of ideas. It is a creative art.” “Photography is about finding out what can happen in the frame. When you put four edges around some facts, you change those facts.” “Photography is truth. The cinema is truth twenty-four times per second.” “Photography is pretty simple stuff. You just react to what you see, and take many, many pictures.” “Photography is a small voice, at best, but sometimes one photograph, or a group of them, can lure our sense of awareness.” “Photography is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.” “Photography is a way of putting distance between myself and the work which sometimes helps me to see more clearly what it is that I have made.” “Photography is a major force in explaining man to man.” “Photography is the easiest medium with which to be merely competent. Almost anybody can be competent. It’s the hardest medium in which to have some sort of personal vision and to have a signature style.”
