Photography Was My Choice Of Weapons.

You Have A 45mm Automatic Pistol On Your Lap, And I Have A 35mm Camera On My Lap, And My Weapon Is Just As Powerful As Yours. (to Black Panther Militant Eldridge Cleaver)

If A Man Can Reach The Latter Days Of His Life With His Soul Intact, He Has Mastered Life.

I Saw That The Camera Could Be A Weapon Against Poverty, Against Racism, Against All Sorts Of Social Wrongs. I Knew At That Point I Had To Have A Camera.

I Suffered Evils, But Without Allowing Them To Rob Me Of The Freedom To Expand.

I Feel It Is The Heart, Not The Eye, That Should Determine The Content Of The Photograph. What The Eye Sees Is Its Own. What The Heart Can Perceive Is A Very Different Matter.
