The world that seemed so various and new, well, it does contract. One's burning desire to investigate human behavior, and to make, or imply, statements about it, does fall off. And so one does find that early works are full of energy and also full of vulgarity, crudity, and incompetence, and later works are more carefully finished, and in that sense better literary products.

I wish someone had told me then that the most personally important pictures you’ll ever make are those about you and your life.

Don’t sell yourself short: photograph your own life, not just everyone else’s.
