"You go and you buy a lottery ticket. You've got just as much chance of getting struck by lightning as you do of winning the lottery."

Previous Quote

The way I photograph... in many ways it's directed by chance and all my mistakes, which are often the best stuff. I found that no matter if it's the same tape, the same TV, and the same camera, I can never duplicate an image... your arm jiggles, there's just too much chance. And I never put it on pause, or use any of that fancy equipment.
