Within every man and woman a secret is hidden, and as a photographer it is my task to reveal it if I can.

I try to photograph people's spirits and thoughts. As to the soul-taking by the photographer, I don't feel I take away, but rather that the sitter and I give to each other. It becomes an act of mutual participation.

There's a duality in every man and every woman.

There is a brief moment when all there is in a man's mind and soul and spirit is reflected through his eyes, his hands, his attitude. This is the moment to record.

I think it's important for every man to find the right woman and every woman to find the right man.

Desire! That's the one secret of every man's career. Not education. Not being born with hidden talents. Desire.
