Most people, especially successful people, are hard-working. They want to participate. They want to do things well.

I didn't want to let women down. One of the stereotypes I see breaking is the idea of aging and older women not being beautiful.

One doesn't stop seeing. One doesn't stop framing. It doesn't turn off and turn on. It's on all the time.

Everyone has a point of view. Some people call it style, but what we're really talking about is the guts of a photograph. When you trust your point of view, that's when you start taking pictures.

When I say I want to photograph someone, what it really means is that I'd like to know them. Anyone I know I photograph.

A thing that you see in my pictures is that I was not afraid to fall in love with these people.

Things happen in front of you. That's perhaps the most wonderful and mysterious aspect of photography.

A lot can be told from what happens in between the main moments.

I wish that all of nature's magnificence, the emotion of the land, the living energy of place could be photographed.

Nature is so powerful, so strong. Capturing its essence is not easy - your work becomes a dance with light and the weather. It takes you to a place within yourself.

I feel a responsibility to my backyard. I want it to be taken care of and protected.

Getting caught up in someone else's dream is like a drug. Sometimes you have to go cold turkey.

War makes thieves and peace hangs them.

I wasn't quite as certain that I knew her soul. When it came right down to it, I wasn't sure she knew me either.

Don't fall in love with a bonobo, because it's gonna die.

... the thing that kept Christ on that cross was love, not the nail.

Final thoughts are so, you know, final. Let's call them closing words.

I realized at a young age that sequence in an album is almost as important as the songs that are on the album.

Success is total self-acceptance.

I belong nowhere and to no one.

Hopefully, generations after us will continue to protect, preserve, and look after this wonderful land.
