"Only the photograph that springs from life is of interest to me. The joy of looking, sensitivity, sensuality, imagination, all that one takes to heart, come together in the viewfidner of a camera. That joy will exist for me forever."

Quote: Henri Cartier-Bresson
"Some of my best photos were taken in those first days with my Leica. But, at the time, my general standard was extremely low; I destroyed all my medicocre negatives just before the war. Exceptional photographs continue to be rare, even though my general standard has improved. In all my photo essays I am always looking for a unique photo, the exceptional one that could be looked at for more than a few seconds. It takes a great deal of milk to make a little cream."
