Chance Is The One Thing You Can't

Nowadays People's Visual Imagination Is So Much More Sophisticated, So Much More Developed, Particularly In Young People, That Now You Can Make An Image Which Just Slightly Suggests Something, They Can Make Of It What They Will.

There Are Days When Simply Seeing Feels Like Happiness Itself....you Feel So Rich, The Elation Seems Almost Excessive And You Want To Share It

Chance Is The One Thing You Can't Buy. You Have To Pay For It And You Have To Pay For It With Your Life, Spending A Lot Of Time, You Pay For It With Time, Not The Wasting Of Time But The Spending Of Time.

Some Days The Mere Fact Of Seeing Feels Like Perfect Happiness... You Feel So Rich You Long To Share Your Jubilation With Others. The Memory Of Such Moments Is My Most Precious Possession. Maybe Because There've Been So Few Of Them. A Hundredth Of A Second Here, A Hundredth Of A Second There-- Even If You Put Them End To End They Still Only Add Up To One, Two, Perhaps Three Seconds Snatched From Eternity.

The Photographer Must Be Absorbent - Like A Blotter, Allow Himself To Be Permeated By The Poetic Moment... His Technique Should Be Like An Animal Function... He Should Act Automatically.
