Quotes: Eddie Adams


"Making pictures in Vietnam is easy...things are happening all around and you just have to  press  a button and not get killed."

"Pictures do lie; pictures don't tell the whole story. You're looking at 1/500th of a second, it's a moment. It doesn't tell you why... You don't see all sides. But pictures are important because people believe in them."


"The camera is like a shield and I will go into situations unarmed, I've never carried a weapon, I feel That the camera's going to protect me, you know, and I think that's a port of survival too."
