What has changed is that when I photographed, most people that I photographed didn't have the right of refusal on their work. It would take a Marilyn Monroe at her height to be able to dictate that.

If you are careful with people, they will offer you part of themselves. That is the big secret.

If a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given. It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.

I think if I ever get satisfied, I’ll have to stop. It’s the frustration that drives you.

If the photographer is interested in the people in front of his lens, and if he is compassionate, it's already a lot. The instrument is not the camera but the photographer.

The instrument is not the camera but the photographer.

I didn't want to be a woman photographer. That would limit me. I wanted to be a photographer who was a woman, with all the world open to my camera.

What do you hang on the walls of your mind?

I don't see anybody as either ordinary or extraordinary. I see them simply as people in front of my lens.

I found a way of working which pleased me because I didn’t have to frighten people with heavy equipment. It was that little black box and me.

Do not go for conformity that breeds mediocrity! Choose instead to stand for transformation that does not only transforms lives, but true purpose and living as well.

Sometimes you have good days, and sometimes you have bad days. It really depends on how much caffeine you've had.

Sometimes you just have to sit down a lot and make sure everyone's cool. If someone has an issue, you make sure they don't keep it inside. That's been the model of the Simple Plan.

Stepping outside the comfort zone is the price I pay to find out how good I can be. If I planned on backing off every time running got difficult I would hang up my shoes and take up knitting.

Racism built me into a person that was set up to be self-destructive.

If everybody switched to organic farming, we couldn't support the earth's current population - maybe half.

I feel like every movie is definitely the last one that I've had my moment; that I'm going to be selling autographs at malls.

Where am I? (Nick) Hospital. (Kyrian) Really? No kidding? And here I thought I was at McDonald’s. (Nick)

Am I a rock star? Yeah, I guess.
