I can't talk about my style. It us kind of difficult for me. I don't like styles. I only like taking photos and expressing myself through them.

The camera is my tool. Through it I give a reason to everything around me.

Seeing is not enough; you have to feel what you photograph

I still regard myself as an amateur today and I hope that's what I'll stay until the end of my life. Because I'm forever a beginner who discovers the world again and again.

You do not have to imagine things; reality gives you all you need.

The photographer's art is a continuous discovery which requires patience and time.

People in motion are wonderful to photograph. It means catching the right moment... when one thing changes into something else.

I can do something with almost anything I see. Everything is still interesting to me.

Technique isn't important. Technique is in the blood. Events and mood are more important than good light and the happening is what is important

I do not document anything, I give an interpretation.

I do what I feel, that's all. I am an ordinary photographer working for his own pleasure. That's all I've ever done.

Whoever desire to learn, shall delight in reading.

But how sane can the mind really be if it doesn't even know its own depth?

The worker-mother must learn not to differentiate between yours and mine; she must remember that there are only our children, the children of Russia’s communist workers.

I wasn't a great student. Just give me a school with no grades, and I'll be happy.

My diet is usually pretty consistent whether I'm training for a specific fight or not. I don't like to mess too much with it.

Faith is the profound knowing that comes before reality confirms it.

I always get a little uppity when I hear the phrase 'TV actor.' It's like saying you're a magazine reporter. I was in the theater for ten years before I ever had a TV audition.

I'm scared of snakebites - that's the origin of cowboy boots, protection - but my toes need to breathe.

Despite the economic disaster that is Russia, there are still air shows taking place in the country.
