It is really funny to see people that you know acting unpleasantly just because there are TV cameras on.

If you're shooting a really serious, dramatic scene, personally I wouldn't want to look at the camera.

You can't always look at life as a miserable thing.

You must photograph where you are involved; where you are overwhelmed by what you see before you; where you hold your breath while releasing the shutter, not because you are afraid of jarring the camera, but because you are seeing with your guts wide open to the sweet pain of an image that is part of your life.

When I'm photographing, I think - like any rescue worker who deals with tragedy - you have to have some protective barrier around your heart so you can do your job. You tend to have a delayed reaction to things. I feel things more deeply after I put the camera down.

Misery is a communicable disease.

You don't want to be the guy whose back's to the camera in the emotional part of the movie. So, you have to be aware of the camera movement and what the camera's doing.

The camera is my tool. Through it I give a reason to everything around me.

One should really use the camera as though tomorrow you'd be stricken blind.

People ask me to smile for the camera, but somehow it always comes out gloomy.
