I can still recall the thrill of shooting my first film.

Cinematography is infinite in its possibilities... much more so than music or language.

You are always a student, never a master. You have to keep moving forward.

Dad, wherever you are, you are gone but you will never be forgotten.

It was 100 feet of 16 mm black-and-white film of a car coming to a stop sign, and driving off. I had to decide how to frame and light it. It was magic. There was a sense of mystery.

I was very happy sitting alone at a dining room table, writing a script.

There are infinite shadings of light and shadows and colors... it's an extraordinarily subtle language. Figuring out how to speak that language is a lifetime job.

Every cinematographer I worked with had his own way of solving problems.

Every once in a while, when the audience is expecting to see one thing, you have to show them something else.

Contrast is what makes photography interesting.

But at heart, I am more than a cinematographer.

Some people need a super hero to save them, but I am my own super hero. All I need is myself, my strengths and the fiery passions in my heart to overcome the obstacles in my life.

When you deprive yourself of happiness, you deprive yourself your sense of being.

The history of all times and of today especially teaches that... women will be forgotten if they forget to think about themselves.

We ought to learn from the kine one thing: ruminating.

The weather is here Wish you were beautiful.

Every time you see kid and hear kid, you think, man, I have to not sound like a kid.

I don't believe in monogamy, possessing people, the rightness or inevitability of jealousy.

Wisdom ruleth in counsel -- so do riches.

Just remember, somewhere there's some guy who's tired of putting up with her crap

I've got a lot of good friends - the owner of the Miami Dolphins and the New York Jets - both owners are friends of mine.
