The language that photography has is a formal language. Any photographer is doing something formal. If it's formal, then it must be an aesthetic way to communicate.

It's more important for a photographer to have very good shoes, than to have a very good camera

The picture is not made by the photographer, the picture is more good or less good in function of the relationship that you have with the people you photograph.

In GENESIS, my camera allowed nature to speak to me. And it was my privilege to listen.

I don't believe a person has a style. What people have is a way of photographing what is inside them. What is there comes out.

I'm not an artist. An artist makes an object. Me, it's not an object, I work in history, I'm a storyteller.

I believe that the average person can help a lot, not by giving material goods but by participating, by being part of the discussion, by being truly concerned about what is going on in the world.

I try with my pictures to raise a question, to provoke a debate, so that we can discuss problems together and come up with solutions.

What I want is to create a discussion about what is happening around the world and to provoke some debate with these pictures. Nothing more than this.

I tell a little bit of my life to them, and they tell a little of theirs to me. The picture itself is just the tip of the iceberg.

Let's build Paradise again.

Words. I had always loved them. I collected them, like I had collected pretty stones as a child.

A woman's strength is the irresistible might of weakness.

My family is pretty funny. My mother is British, so she's got a very dry sense of humor. That's where I got that from.

What mortal is there, over whose first joys and happiness does not break some storm, dispelling with its icy breath his fanciful illusions, and shattering his altar?

I'm very in love with the fact that the camera is revolted by acting and loves behaviour.

I am the planet's most affectionate life-form, something like the cross between a golden retriever and a barnacle.

To judge a composer's work, one must consider it as a whole.

I am convinced that UFOs exist because I've seen one.

This created world really helped me as an actor. It heightened everything, which made it more dangerous, more interesting and more liberating.

You can't say there shouldn't be marketing and (that) marketing is a bad thing.
