To me, photography is the simultaneous recognition, in a fraction of a second, of the significance of an event. ↗

Photographers deal in things which are continually vanishing and when they have vanished there is no contrivance on earth which can make them come back again. ↗

To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy. ↗

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick. ↗

The photograph itself doesn't interest me. I want only to capture a minute part of reality. ↗

Memory is very important, the memory of each photo taken, flowing at the same speed as the event. During the work, you have to be sure that you haven't left any holes, that you've captured everything, because afterwards it will be too late. ↗

In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little, human detail can become a Leitmotiv. ↗

Above all, I craved to seize the whole essence, in the confines of one single photograph, of some situation that was in the process of unrolling itself before my eyes. ↗
