I like starting. It's pretty cool.

A window covered with raindrops interests me more than a photograph of a famous person.

Photography allows you to learn to look and see. You begin to see things you'd never paid attention to.

In order to build a career and to be successful, one has to be determined. One has to be ambitious. I much prefer to drink coffee, listen to music and to paint when I feel like it.

I go out to take a walk, I see something, I take a picture. I take photographs. I have avoided profound explanations of what I do.

There are the things that are out in the open and then there are the things that are hidden, and life has more to do, the real world has more to do with what is hidden, maybe. You think?

The important thing in life is not what you get, but what you throw out.

Seeing is a neglected enterprise.

I don’t have a philosophy. I have a camera.

When we do not know why the photographer has taken a picture and when we do not know why we are looking at it, all of a sudden we discover something that we start seeing. I like this confusion.

If I’d only known which [photographs] would be very good and liked, I wouldn’t have had to do all the thousands of others.

When people inexplicably dissapeared into thin air, it was usually because they had a new zip code. Something like 666

We must always emphasize research and development of science and mathematics, and I can think of no better way to achieve this than through our future in space.

I believe I shall never be old enough to speak without embarrassment when I have nothing to talk about.

Look outside the window. Do you see the fence outside the palace? Do you see any guards? This is a country where everyone is safe.

The superior person is in harmony, but does not follow the crowd. The lesser person follows the crowd, but is not in harmony.

What we must learn to do is to create unbreakable bonds between the sciences and the humanities. We cannot procrastinate. The world of the future is in our making. Tomorrow is now.

A little story is supported by a lot of untold backstory. What they get is more than what they see.

The perfect detective story cannot be written. The type of mind which can evolve the perfect problem is not the type of mind that can produce the artistic job of writing.
