“You have to know why you want to take a picture in the first place. And that’s a hell of a difficult question. If you don’t know, don’t start. There needs to always be a reason why you take a picture in the first place. You have to think very hard before you want to take a photograph. At certain moments, if you are insecure, then it becomes exciting. You don’t know where it’s going. That’s the interesting bit. You have to push yourself where it’s unsafe. It’s very exciting.”
—Jürgen Teller, quoted here.
