You pick up a camera because something has been revealed to you in the landscape or in the human-scape. And you have no choice because it's a gift. And it's like, oh right, I better start doing this!

I was always amazed at how beautiful the light was. At different times of the day the landscape becomes a different place. Dawn and dusk, it's a different place.

You spend your whole life trapped inside your body. Everything you know about the world comes to you through your body.

It just struck me that one of the things about photography that made it such a compelling medium to deal with is that it is perhaps the most contradictory of mediums.

What happens with experiences that really move us deeply, that really effect us? They make the world new again. What it does is it heightens our sense of mortality.

On practical level I can't pick up the camera until I think I know what I want. I don't wander around. It's almost impossible for me to pick up a camera... it's really hard.

Most of life is grey, with a little tiny bit of black and white.

There are no inherent limitations to the medium. There are just differences.

There's something about the processional nature of the architecture, of the rooms connecting rooms. It's just breathtaking.

It was the dreamscape of the suburbs that interested me.

As a boy I was obsessed with Egypt and Egyptology. I'm convinced it's not that uncommon. A lot of 10 or 12 year old boys become obsessed with Egypt. It's a bit like young girls and horses.

We should always live in holiness and reveal the holiness of God to the world

When all that you've tried, leaves nothing but holes inside.

The older you get, the more people think they have to listen to you.

I just want to give it all that I got. I just don't want to waste it.

I think I definitely enjoy recording, but I think it's more fun to go out and perform live, because it's like instant gratification, you know? You feel the response immediately.

We want our sound to go into the soul of the audience, and see if it can awaken some little thing in their minds... 'Cause there are so many sleeping people.

It’s foolish to fear what we’ve yet to see and know.

There is no rampart that will hold out against malice.

I'm not very good at being domesticated. I've tried. The domestic life I find claustrophobic - the rituals and habits and patterns.

I was thinking that women should put pictures of missing husbands on beer cans.
