“In critical moments, men sometimes see exactly what they wish to see.”

A neighborhood friend showed me how it was possible to go to a camera shop and pick up chemicals for pennies literally and develop your own film and make prints.

Interesting. You Earth people glorify organized violence for 40 centuries, but you imprison those who employ it privately.

What fiction could match – in drama or suspense – man’s first walk on the Moon?

I could not deprive you of the revelation of all that you could accomplish together, of a friendship that will define you both in ways you cannot yet realize.

My dream concept is that I have a camera and I am trying to photograph what is essentially invisible. And every once in a while I get a glimpse of her and I grab that picture.

Greetings, I am pleased to see that we are different. May we together become greater than the sum of both of us.

Whatever we are we belong together. Wherever we are, we will find each other. Whoever we are we are forever one.

There are studies that tell us that stress and lack of self-image, lack of self-esteem, severe dieting, binge dieting and binge eating can also be very damaging to a body and bring on various kinds of abnormalities.

I deal with this spiritual issue every day – either shooting or processing or sorting or discussing or having conversations – I’m in constant contact with it.

I also do my own processing, so it means a big commitment in lab time.

It is important to understand what are you trying to capture with a camera. What you want to use this tool for. It helps to begin to search for and concentrate on thematic photography.

Spock is definitely one of my best friends. When I put on those ears, it’s not like just another day. When I become Spock, that day becomes something special.

What I’m exploring right now is the subject of my own mortality, It’s an area that I’m curious about, and I’m researching it to see if there’s a photographic essay in it for me. If images don’t start to come, I’ll go to something else.

Computers make excellent and efficient servants, but I have no wish to serve under them.

Because I have known despair, I value hope. Because I have tasted frustration, I value fulfillment. Because I have been lonely, I value love.

These are beautiful days. Folks ask what I’m doing. I tell them I’m doing family.

Art is to look at not to criticize.

Paranoiac-critical activity makes the world of delirium pass onto the plane of reality.

The money can be a hindrance to someone like me because the danger is that you start thinking, ‘Is that a $20 million take?’ That kind of thing, and being self-critical.

Don’t criticize that man unless you have walked in his shoes.

Freedom of the Press, if it means anything at all, means the freedom to criticize and oppose

Constantly seek criticism. A well thought out critique of what you’re doing is as valuable as gold.

I like criticism. It makes you strong.

Critics kind never mind! Critics flatter no matter! Critics blame all the same! Do your best damn the rest!
