The Photographer Must Be Absorbent - Like

I Prefer My Hesitations, My False Paths, My Stammering, To A Preconceived Idea.

Some Days The Mere Fact Of Seeing Feels Like Perfect Happiness... You Feel So Rich You Long To Share Your Jubilation With Others. The Memory Of Such Moments Is My Most Precious Possession. Maybe Because There've Been So Few Of Them. A Hundredth Of A Second Here, A Hundredth Of A Second There-- Even If You Put Them End To End They Still Only Add Up To One, Two, Perhaps Three Seconds Snatched From Eternity.

For A Photographer, The First 70 Years Are A Bit Difficult, But After That Things Get Better.

Nowadays People's Visual Imagination Is So Much More Sophisticated, So Much More Developed, Particularly In Young People, That Now You Can Make An Image Which Just Slightly Suggests Something, They Can Make Of It What They Will.

To Freeze Time, To Hold On To Youth, This Business Makes No Sense. It's Always Time That Wins In The End.
