The mystery isn't in the technique, it's in each of us.

You only do exercises in art school. That's not the real thing. A little bit tells you so much. You have to find your own self. And you don't know what you are! But that's what you have to search for.
Harry Callahan -
You're a legend in your own mind.
Harry Callahan -
I can't say what makes a picture. I can't say. It's mysterious.

My project could be only to photograph as I felt and desired, to regulate a pleasant form of living, to get up in the morning-free, to feel the trees, the grass, the water, sky or buildings, people-everything that affects us; and to photograph that which I saw and have always felt.
Harry Callahan -

Harry Callahan -

Nothing wrong with people getting shot, as long as it's the right people getting shot.
Harry Callahan -
To be a photographer, one must photograph. No amount of book learning, no checklist of seminars attended, can substitute for the simple act of making pictures.
Harry Callahan -
Only the journey matters.
