I Believe That What We Call Beautiful

When You Are Doing A Lot Of Hard Fast Field Work, It's A Physical Necessity To Forget Every Day. You Can't Try To Remember It In Any Continuity. You Get So Burdened If You Try To Do It The Other Way. You Can't Dictate To Your Material... We Found Our Way In, Slid In On The Edges. We Used Our Hunches. And It Was Hard, Hard Living.

I Had To Get My Camera To Register Things That Were More Important Than How Poor They Were--their Pride, Their Strength, Their Spirit.

Ours Is A Time Of The Machine, And Ours Is A Need To Know That The Machine Can Be Put To Creative Human Effort. If Not, The Machine Can Destroy Us.

You Put Your Camera Around Your Neck Along With Putting On Your Shoes, And There It Is, An Appendage Of The Body That Shares Your Life With You. The Camera Is An Instrument That Teaches People How To See Without A Camera.

Surefire Things Are Deadening To The Human Spirit.
