Whatever it is about pictures, photographs, it's just about impossible to follow up with words. They don't have anything to do with each other.

Often people ask what I'm photographing, which is a hard question to answer. And the best what I've come up with is I just say: Life today.

I am at war with the obvious.

I don't think about what camera I should use that much. I just pick up the one that looks nicest on the day.

I had this notion of what I called a democratic way of looking around, that nothing was more or less important.

It quickly came to be that I grew interested in photographing whatever was there wherever I happened to be. For any reason.

Photography just gets us out of the house.

You can take a good picture of anything. A bad one, too.

Path of light, path of life.

There is no redemption in a cruel man's love.

It ought to be done by the elected officials themselves because they have the credibility. And it's not like we aren't willing to help.

If you are in Christ, you are fully and completely forgiven for all your sin-past, present and future.

The 'still, small voice' of God never calls on me to be like another man. It appeals to me to rise to my full stature and fulfill the promise that sleeps within my being.
