ज़रूरी बात यह है कि हमारी दृष्टि सौंदर्य की पारंपरिक धारणाओं से आज़ाद हो और अपने आपको पल-भर के उस सौंदर्य तथा उन अनोखे नज़ारों के प्रति खोले जो एक पल के लिए प्रकट होते हैं और फिर कभी लौटकर नहीं आते; यही बातें फोटोग्राफी को एक कला बनाती हैं।

What is important is that our optical awareness rids itself of classical notions of beauty and opens itself more and more to the beauty of the instant and of these surprising points of view that appear for a brief moment and never return; those are what make photography an art.

समय के साथ हम सभी कई अलग-अलग इंसान बन जाते हैं। हमारे भीतर हमारे बचपन का रूप होता है, वे लोग जिन्हें हम याद रखते हैं, लेकिन वे हमारे वयस्क स्वरूप से काफी अलग होते हैं और जिस तरह से हम अपनी खुद की जिंदगी की कहानी बुनते हैं, वह मुझे लगता है कि किसी जीवनीकार द्वारा किसी जीवन की कहानी गढ़ने से कुछ खास अलग नहीं है।

All of us are many different people over time. We have our childhood selves, people that we remember, but they're very different to our adult selves and the way that we create our own naratives is not that dissimilar, I think, to how a biographer structures their narrative of a life.

अप्रैल 2007 में मुझे पता चला कि इव सेंट लॉरेंट (Yves Saint Laurent) को ब्रेन ट्यूमर है, और 1 जून 2008 को उनका निधन हो गया। उन 14 महीनों के दौरान मेरे पास यह सोचने के लिए पर्याप्त समय था कि आगे क्या होगा। इसका केवल एक ही समाधान था: नीलामी। नीलामी यादों को ज़िंदा रखती है। मैं यही करना चाहता हूँ।

In April 2007 I learned that Yves Saint Laurent had a brain tumor, and he died on June 1, 2008. During those 14 months I had plenty of time to think about what would happen. There was only one solution: the auction. An auction establishes memory. That's what I want to do.

मैं उस पीढ़ी से ताल्लुक रखता हूँ जिसके पास अनगिनत विकल्प थे। 1970 में, जब [पूर्व प्रधानमंत्री रॉबर्ट] बोरासा ने जेम्स बे विकास परियोजना की शुरुआत की थी, तब क्यूबेक में किसी ने यह नहीं पूछा था कि क्या हमारे पास ऐसा करने के साधन हैं। क्या आज हम कोई दूसरी जेम्स बे परियोजना शुरू कर सकते हैं? जरा सोचिए, इस पर कितनी बहसें होंगी? हम एक युवा, अमीर समाज थे जिस पर लगभग कोई कर्ज नहीं था। हमारे बाद आने वाली पीढ़ी, जो क्यूबेक का नेतृत्व करेगी, उसके पास भी विकल्प होने चाहिए। और इसके लिए उन्हें वित्तीय मोर्चे पर थोड़ी छूट और गुंजाइश चाहिए होगी।

I belong to a generation that had so many choices available. In 1970, when [former premier Robert] Bourassa launched the James Bay development project, nobody in Quebec asked whether we had the means to do it. Today could we launch another James Bay?

And for that, they'll need financial manoeuvring room.

हमारी पीढ़ी इतिहास के एक बेहद अहम मोड़ पर खड़ी हो सकती है, क्योंकि वर्तमान में समृद्ध देशों के हम लोग शायद आखिरी ऐसे लोग हैं जो अंतरिक्ष की इस असीम सीमा को टटोलने का जोखिम उठा सकते हैं। अगले दस या बीसों वर्षों में हम जो कदम उठाएंगे, उससे यह तय हो सकता है कि भविष्य की पीढ़ियाँ एक मानवीय और संतुष्ट समाज में जिएएंगी, या फिर हमारी सीमित धरती के संसाधनों से मिलने वाली घटती खुराक के लिए जीवन भर संघर्ष करती रहेंगी।

मेरी माँ ने मुझे एक तरीका सिखाया था: अगर आप किसी बात को बार-बार दोहराते हैं, तो उसका मतलब खत्म हो जाता है, मिसाल के तौर पर—होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क होमवर्क—देखा? कुछ नहीं बचा। उन्होंने कहा था कि हमारा वजूद भी कुछ ऐसा ही है। अगर आप सूरज ढलने का नज़ारा बहुत बार देखें, तो वह सिर्फ शाम के 6 बजने जैसा रह जाता है; अगर आप बार-बार वही गलती दोहराते हैं, तो आप उसे गलती मानना बंद कर देते हैं। अगर आप बस उठो उठो उठो उठो उठो उठो करते रहें, तो एक दिन आप भूल ही जाएंगे कि आप क्यों उठे थे।
