The Worst Thing Is To Feel That As A Photographer I Am Benefiting From Someone Else's Tragedy. This Idea Haunts Me. It's Something I Have To Reckon With Every Day Because I Know That If I Ever Allow Genuine Compassion To Be Overtaken By Personal Ambition, I Will Have Sold My Soul. The Only Way I Can Justify My Role Is To Have Respect For The Other Person's Predicament. The Extent To Which I Do That Is The Extent To Which I Become Accepted By The Other; And To That Extent, I Can Accept Myself.
