You don’t take a photograph, you make it.
Every picture shows a spot with which the artist has fallen in love.
A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you, the less you know.
A picture is worth a thousand words.
Photography is the story I fail to put into words.
Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.
In photography, there is a reality so subtle that it becomes more real than reality.
There are no rules for good photographs, there are only good photographs.
Photography is a love affair with life.
The Earth is art, the photographer is only a witness.
I don’t trust words. I trust pictures.
What I like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.
Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.
Photography is the only language that can be understood anywhere in the world.
The best thing about a picture is that it never changes, even when the people in it do.
A good snapshot keeps a moment from running away.
The camera makes you forget you’re there. It’s not like you are hiding but you forget, you are just looking so much.
The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.
When people look at my pictures, I want them to feel the way they do when they want to read a line of a poem twice.
A true photograph need not be explained, nor can it be contained in words.
