Photography is a universal language, transcending the boundaries of race, politics, and nationality.

In conclusion, the idea of direction on the part of the photographer has its greatest value when its processes are least discernible to the spectator.

...a photographer must be aware of and concerned about the words that accompany a picture. These words should be considered as carefully as the lighting, exposure and composition of the photograph.

It is a rare photographer who can take a detached, cold-blooded view of his work.

Because powerful images are fixed in the mind more readily than words, the photographer needs no interpreter. A photograph means the same thing all over the world and no translator is required. Photography is truly a universal language, transcending all boundaries of race, politics and nationality.
