Author of quotes: Henri Cartier-Bresson

The photographer works only in movement, it is something like a premonition of life, and photography should catch this expressive balance in movement.

A snapshot is a direct action; drawing is mediated thinking.

Taking pictures means holding your breath.

When the photographer aims the viewfinder, the line of sight goes through his eye, head, and heart.

There are things. which take time to do, and these are the things that time spares.

Color is never beautiful on its own, this is the ratio. Nothing exists by itself. Things exist in relation to something else.

Of course, it's all about luck.

I think that among photographers there is a big difference, but very important matter.

You should think before and after shooting, never during it.

The photograph itself doesn't interest me. I just want to grab a slice of reality. I don't want to prove anything, anything to emphasize. Things and people speak for themselves. I don't do "kitchen". Work in the laboratory or in the Studio I have is nausea. I hate to manipulate - either during shooting or after, in a dark room. A good eye will always notice such manipulations... the Only moment of creation is one twenty fifth fraction of a second when the shutter clicks, the camera flashes light and movement stops.

Taking a picture is like writing a picture, but for one second.

I am neither an economist nor a journalist, taking pictures of landmarks. I'm just trying to carefully observe life.

To photograph is at one and the same moment, in the slightest fraction of a second to recognize the fact and the rigorous organization of seen forms that Express this fact. Put it on one line of sight the head, eye and heart.
