“My passion has never been for photography itself, but for the possibility by forgetting a self, of capturing, in a fraction of second, the emotion of a subject and the beauty of form. You see…you feel, and the surprised eye responds. Taking pictures means holding your breath with all your faculties concentrated on capturing a fleeting reality.”

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

“Saturate yourself with your subject and the camera will all but take you by the hand.”
