When I have a camera in my hand, I know no fear.
Alfred Eisenstaedt
Once the amateur's naive approach and humble willingness to learn fades away, the creative spirit of good photography dies with it. Every professional should remain always in his heart an amateur.
Alfred Eisenstaedt

Alfred Eisenstaedt
I don't like to work with assistants. I'm already one too many; the camera alone would be enough.
