“The world before us is a postcard, and I imagine the story we are writing on it.” ―
“I take a picture, but it’s not about who is in the picture or the background of it. It’s about the memories and meanings it holds.” ―
“When words become unclear, I shall focus with photographs. When images become inadequate, I shall be content with silence.” ―
“There are no bad pictures; that’s just how your face looks sometimes.” ―
“You don’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” ―
“When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. But when you photograph people in Black and white, you photograph their souls!” ―
“All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability. Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.” ―
