"Photography is an immediate reaction, drawing is a meditation."

"To me, photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event."
Perception
"To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."
Joy
"Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again."

"The photograph itself doesn't interest me. I want only to capture a minute part of reality."
Interest
"During the work, you have to be sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late."
Work
"In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little, human detail can become a Leitmotiv."
Detail
"The creative act lasts but a brief moment, a lightning instant of give-and-take, just long enough for you to level the camera and to trap the fleeting prey in your little box."
Act
"Memory is very important, the memory of each photo taken, flowing at the same speed as the event. During the work, you have to be sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late."
Work
"Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick."
Time
"We photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing, and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth can make them come back again. We cannot develop and print a memory."

"Congratulations, he said. "That was the stupidest thing I've ever seen." His expression was a mix of awe and disbelief. "Ever."

"Action triggers reaction. An object somehow responds when we observe it.We just assume that we do objective. In fact, unconsciously we only want to see some parts of the object which do not evoke the bitter memories of our past."

"It was Orwellian. I completely disappeared, and disappeared the same day. It was by early that evening when the Times story ran. That was an overreaction. All human beings under pressure behave poorly."
