If your photos aren’t good enough, then you’re not close enough.
如果你的照片不夠好， 那表示你還離得不夠近。
Robert Capa 羅伯特．卡帕
Photographers mistake the emotion they feel while taking the photo as a judgment that the photograph is good.
攝影師往往因為主觀的情感投射而誤認自己拍攝的照片都是好的。
Garry Winogrand 加里．維諾蓋德
Since I’m inarticulate, I express myself with images.
因為我口齒不清, 所以我用畫面表達自己。
Helen Levitt 海倫．萊維特
To me, photography is art of observation. It’s about finding something interesting in an ordinary place…I’ve found it has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.
對我來說，攝影是種觀察的藝術，是從尋常的地方找到趣味的事物……我認為攝影與你所要拍攝的物件沒有太大的關係，重要的是你用甚麼角度去觀察。
Elliott Erwitt 艾略特．厄韋特
The best camera is the one that’s with you
最好的相機是你需要時就在你身邊的那台。
Chase Jarvis
It’s more important to click with people than to click the shutter.
與人們產生情感聯繫比按下快門更重要。
Alfred Eisenstaedt 阿爾弗雷德．愛森斯坦特
I suspect it is for one’s self-interest that one looks at one’s surroundings and one’s self. This search is personally born and is indeed my reason and motive for making photographs.
我不認為一個人觀察自身及他周圍的環境是為了個人利益，這種觀察與尋找的行為是與生俱來的，也正是促使我拍攝的動力。
Lee Friedlander 李．弗瑞德蘭德
I love the people I photograph, I mean they’re my friends. I’ve never met most of them or I don’t know them at all, yet through my images I live with them.
我愛我所拍攝的人們，意思是說我把他們當朋友。我幾乎不認識我所拍攝的任何人，但透過鏡頭會讓我覺得自己與他們很親近。
Bruce Gilden 布魯斯．吉爾登
There is a creative fraction of a second when you are taking a picture. Your eye must see a composition or an expression that life itself offers you, and you must know with intuition when to click the camera. That is the moment the photographer is creative. Oop! The Moment! Once you miss it, it is gone forever.
在街頭攝影的過程中創意表現的瞬間非常非常短暫，你必須懂得如何看到那個當下所提供最真實的構圖及情境，且要用直覺判斷何時按下快門，那就是決定一位街頭攝影師是否有創意的瞬間。啊! 就是現在! 一旦你錯過那個瞬間，它將一去不返。
Henri Cartier Bresson 亨利．卡特．布列松
Seeing is not enough, you have to feel what you photograph
光觀察還不夠，你要去感覺你所拍攝的對象。
Andre Kertesz 安德烈．柯特茲
Be yourself. I much prefer seeing something, even it is clumsy, that doesn’t look like somebody else’s work
做你自己。我寧願看到風格不夠純熟的照片，也不想看到近似其他攝影師風格的照片。
William Klein 威廉．克萊因
