My name is Weegee. I'm the world's greatest photographer.

When you find yourself beginning to feel a bond between yourself and the people you photograph, when you laugh and cry with their laughter and tears, you will know you are on the right track.

To me a photograph is a page from life, and that being the case, it must be real.

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.

The same camera that photographs a murder scene can photograph a beautiful society affair at a big hotel.

People are so wonderful that a photographer has only to wait for that breathless moment to capture what he wants on film.

If I had a picture of two handcuffed criminals being booked, I would cut the picture in half and get five bucks for each.

To me, pictures are like blintzes - ya gotta get 'em while they're hot.

What I did, anybody can do.

Hollywood is Newark, New Jersey with palm trees.

There are photographic fanatics, just as there are religious fanatics. They buy a so-called candid camera there is no such thing: it’s the photographer who has to be candid, not the camera.

It's what he needs, and whether he ever admits it to us or not, it's what he loves" - Theoden (From Commanded:House of Theoden)

Forever encased in the amber of a writer's prose.

Think larger. Redraw what is possible.

On good days, if you trust life, life has to answer you.

Not often do you approach a character where people know more about him than you do.

In friendship similarity of character has more weight than kinship.

None of us believe countering terrorism is about party politics

I want to embrace all of this: touring, going to Europe, Canada, Australia. I want to travel the world, just have a great hang, and hopefully, be a messenger.

Everything ends. But there are always new beginnings.

We all have our down days, but it's not hard to smile and say thank you.
