It is the photographer, not the camera, that is the instrument.

I can't hold a camera anymore.

If a photographer cares about the people before the lens and is compassionate, much is given.

Lesson number one: Pay attention to the intrusion of the camera.

What you need to be a good photographer is an overwhelming curiosity and a good digestion. Sometimes you feel blessed with curiosity, sometimes you feel cursed with it.

It doesn't matter if you use a box camera or you use a Leica; the important thing is what motivates you when you are photographing.
