The idea of photography as evidence is pure bullshit. A photo is no more proof of any reality than what you may hear being said by someone in a bus. We only record details, small fragments of the world.
Marc Riboud

For me photography is not an intellectual process. It is a visual one.... Whether we like it or not, we are involved in a sensual business.
Marc Riboud
Image
Choice or freedom of choice is just an existential concern. But for photographers, it's a lifetime's preoccupation.
Marc Riboud
Image
I'm often asked: Did you get what you wanted? But how should I know what I wanted? A photo is an encounter, a surprise.
Marc Riboud

The eye is made to see and not to think.... A good photograph is a surprise. How could we plan and foresee a surprise? We just have to be ready.

Photography cannot change the world, but it can show the world, especially when it changes.
