तस्वीर खींचने की तुलना अक्सर किसी चीज़ को पुनर्जीवित करने या उद्धार करने से की जाती है—यानी अनंत विकल्पों में से किसी एक ऐसी चीज़ को चुनना जिसे हमेशा याद रखा जा सके।
To photograph is often compared to an act of redemption - to select from an infinite number of choices that which is to be remembered.

मेरे हर काम में उदासी का एक भाव छिपा रहता है। आप किसी भव्यता या अलौकिकता (sublime) पर तस्वीर तो बना सकते हैं, लेकिन आप उस अलौकिकता को खुद कैमरे में कैद नहीं कर सकते।
In all my work there's this notion of the melancholic. You can make a photograph about the sublime, but you can't make the sublime itself.

मैं चीज़ों को इस नज़रे से नहीं देखता कि वे किस तरह रूपक (metaphors) का काम करती हैं.... आप अलौकिक या असीम सौंदर्य को कैमरे में कैद नहीं कर सकते। आप केवल खास चीज़ों और उनके प्रतीकात्मक संबंधों के साथ ही खेल सकते हैं।
I don't look for things to see how they function as metaphors.... You can't photograph the sublime. You can only traffic in the specific and its relationship to the symbolic.

एक वस्तु के रूप में तस्वीर का उसके द्वारा दर्शाई गई चीज़ से वही रिश्ता होता है, जैसा केंचुली का उस साँप से होता है जो उसे उतार फेंकता है।
The photograph as an object has a relationship to that which it represents something like the relationship the snake skin has to the snake that sheds it.

मैं viewfinder से क्या देख रहा हूँ, इस बारे में बहुत ज़्यादा चिंता नहीं करता—कम से कम उस पल तो बिल्कुल नहीं, खासकर जब मैं फ्लैश का इस्तेमाल कर रहा होता हूँ क्योंकि मुझे पता ही नहीं होता कि उसका क्या असर होगा। मैं तो बस एक धुंधली सी संभावना को देखता हूँ। यह असल में ऐसी खूबियों और तत्वों के साथ काम करना है जो उम्मीद है कि किसी दिलचस्प तरीके से आपस में जुड़ेंगे।
I really don't worry too much about what I see through the viewfinder, at least not at that point, especially if I'm using a flash because I don't know what it's going to do. I just see vague potentiality. It's really working with a set of attributes that will hopefully interact in an interesting way.

ऐसे लोगों के बीच रहना बहुत अच्छा लगता है जो [फोटोग्राफी] को एक समझदारी भरा काम मानते हैं, भले ही आस-पड़ोस के बाकी लोगों को यह मज़ाक लगता हो। (फोटोग्राफी सिखाने के फायदों पर)
It's good to be around people who see [photography] as a reasonable enterprise when everyone in the neighborhood may think it's ridiculous. (On the benefit of teaching photography)
