"It is the spectator, and not life, that art really mirrors."

"To me, photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event."

"The modern work of art, as I have said, is a symbol."

"Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better."

"I'm afraid that if you look at a thing long enough, it loses all of its meaning."

"I don't believe in the school of hard knocks, although I've had them. All that stuff about whatever doesn't kill you makes you stronger is so not true. Do you know what makes you stronger? When people treat you and your art with dignity."

"That's the motivation of an artist - to seek attention of some kind."
