Retire? Retire from What? Life? I will only retire when I am dead!

I see pictures all the time. I could stay for hours and watch a raindrop.

The important thing is not the camera but the eye.

Once the amateur's naive approach and humble willingness to learn fades away, the creative spirit of good photography dies with it. Every professional should remain always in his heart an amateur.

Yes, I sold buttons to earn living. But I took pictures to keep on living. Pictures are my life – as necessary as eating or breathing.

Never boss people around. It's more important to click with people than to click the shutter.

I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance.

They love me like I was a brother They protect me, listen to me They dug me my very own garden Gave me sunshine, made me happy Nice dream, nice dream Nice dream
