Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.

The camera is an instrument that teaches people how to see without a camera.

To know ahead of time what you're looking for means you're then only photographing your own preconceptions, which is very limiting, and often false.

To me, beauty appears when one feels deeply, and art is an act of total attention.

You know there are moments such as these when time stands still and all you do is hold your breath and hope it will wait for you.

One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind.

Seeing is more than a physiological phenomenon... We see not only with our eyes but with all that we are and all that our culture is. The artist is a professional see-er.

The good photograph is not the object, the consequences of the photograph are the objects.

But with period clothes, people know less so they accept the pretty drawing that I give them.

It's certainly easy to calculate the average attendance for Perl conferences.

If you are small and don't particularly want credit for what you are doing, you can achieve a lot.

In a murderous time/the heart breaks and breaks/and lives by breaking.

With most competitors moving ever faster, the race will go to those who listen (and respond) most intently.
