For me, photography is as much about the way I respond to the subject as it is about the subject itself.

If you want to be a creative person, then you’re gonna have to be creative in how you put your career together. There isn’t a path. Part of the creativity is making your path.

I fell in love with the process of taking pictures, with wandering around finding things. To me it feels like a kind of performance. The picture is a document of that performance.

I always say that photography's closest cousin is poetry because of the way it sparks your imagination and leaves gaps for the viewer to fill in.

The people that I photographed allowed me to photograph them because they didn't want to be alone, and the truth is I didn't want to be alone making the pictures.

Photography is a very lonely medium. There’s a kind of beautiful loneliness in voyeurism. And that’s why I’m a photographer.

I'm a project-based photographer; I think in narrative terms, the way a writer thinks of a book, or a filmmaker a film.

[Photography is] very related to poetry. It's suggestive and fragmentary and unsatisfying in a lot of ways. It's as much about what you leave out as what you put in.

For me, the act of photography is all about discovery and finding new things.

Nobody really wants to be alone. People need people.

Photography, for me, is a lot like web surfing in real life.

We may have done what the devil said we did, but we are NOT who the devil says we are!

Always love more than they deserve.

Life seems to be fashioned and formed best out of the obstacles that seem unbearable.

Only absurdities need to be defended. Truth speaks for itself.

There is no such thing as accomplishing a righteous reform by the use of 'expediency.' There is no such thing as sliding up hill. In morals, the only sliders are backsliders.

If you want to uncover problems you don't know about, take a few moments and look closely at the areas you haven't examined for a while. I guarantee you problems will be there.

The cricket's gone, we only hear machines In erg and atom they exact their pay. And life is largely lived on silver screens.

Why ask a question whose answer would demand ten more questions?

The life of the dead is placed on the memories of the living. The love you gave in life keeps people alive beyond their time. Anyone who was given love will always live on in another's heart.

After all, computers crash, people die, relationships fall apart. The best we can do is breath and reboot.
