I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them.

I never have taken a picture I've intended. They're always better or worse.

I always thought of photography as a naughty thing to do -- that was one of my favorite things about it, and when I first did it, I felt very perverse.

They are the proof of something was there and no longer is.Like a stain. And the stillness of them is boggling. You can turn away but when you come back they'll still be there looking at you.

A picture is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know.
