Is it possible to put an end to a form of human behavior which has existed throughout history by means of photography?

I have been a witness, and these pictures are my testimony. The events I have recorded should not be forgotten and must not be repeated.

For me, the strength of photography lies in its ability to evoke humanity. If war is an attempt to negate humanity, then photography can be perceived as the opposite of war.

There is a job to be doneto record the truth. I want to wake people up!

I became a photographer in order to be a war photographer, and a photographer involved in what I thought were critical social issues. From the very beginning this was my goal.

You are never freer than in that moment when you decide to expose yourself to sniper fire.

If you want to connect with people who are in distress and great grief and scared, you need to do it in a certain way. I move kind of slow. I talk kind of slow. I let them know that I respect them.

If you make an honest picture of war, it will be an antiwar photograph.

I want my pictures to cut through political abstractions... and make a connection on a human level.

I try to use whatever I know about photography to be of service to the people I'm photographing.

Admit sin, and you banish prayer. But, on the other hand, entertain, and encourage, and practice prayer, and sin will sooner or later flee before it.

Slowly you become your own man.

You’'ve got to understand that everything has its time. I had wonderful years as a boxer, I achieved everything. I don’t miss anything.

I constantly watch 'The Simpsons' and an English cartoon called 'The Raccoons' and 'Gummi Bears.' I was obsessed with ninja films, and the 'Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles,' I used to love that as well.

I don't believe there's any cloud that hangs over me. I think there's nothing but sunshine hanging over me.

I'm not saying I'm some high priestess. I do things, I'm sure, that are damaging, but it's certainly not on purpose.

Gauguin says that when sailors have to move a heavy load or raise an anchor, they all sing together to keep them up and give them vim. That's just what artists lack!

I think America concedes that true American music has sprung from the Negro.
