To me, photography is like a quest, or a pilgrimage, or a hunt. I love painting, I love music, but photography is what has allowed me to get outside of myself.

You cannot live when you are untouchable. Life is vulnerability.

The wandering photographer sees the same show that everyone else sees. He, however, stops to watch it.

The most important thing is to go out and see the stars, not to see them in books.

I think that the photos that we like were made when the photographer knew how to disappear. If there were a secret, certainly that would be it.

Millions of unnecessary photos are taken every day. People stand before the Pyramids and photograph them, when for three cents they could buy postcards which show them much better.

There is a word we haven't used yet: virginity... To make a photograph, the plate must be virgin, but your eye as well.

Taking photographs is not something that happens only in a moment I press the button. It is a full-time occupation. For me there is difference between leisure and work.

Because I know war... because I know the horror, I don't want to add to it. .........After the war, we felt the need to celebrate life, and for me photography was the means to achieve this.

To live, to experience the world, to communicate with a camera, all these are interrelated and cannot be separated from everyday live.

Was it the same light that enchanted the first photographers? It is the same, and it is still brand new - it is something that never wears out.

The human heart is my school.

The Atlanta Braves are really all that our children know about this crazy baseball life, and we are so thankful for this upbringing for them.

When I retired out of the military, I registered myself as a Republican because my views and perspectives were more in line with that party.

All you can do is all you can do, but all you can do is enough.

I think being an atheist is something you are, not something you do.

Tea-making is a ritual that, like the drink itself, warms the heart somehow.

If you're a manager you can't get frustrated and be emotional. You have to continue to steer the ship, you can't let go of the wheel because who knows where it will go then.

You can read about yourself but what's important is how you feel about yourself.

Death is the most misunderstood phenomenon. People have thought of death as the end of life. That is the first, basic misunderstanding.

One thing that makes it possible to be an optimist is if you have a contingency plan for when all hell breaks loose.
