“This is the wisdom of art, the knowledge that beauty perhaps is the one undeniably unique attribute of the human.”

“Wisdom is a unique manifestation of God, a catalyst for transformation of the human person's life into one of fight and goodness.”

“Knowledge was never simply born in the human mind; it was always reborn. The relaying of wisdom from one age to the next, this cycle of rebirths: this was wisdom.”

“We, or at least I, can have no conception of human life and human thought in a hundred years or fifty years. Perhaps my greatest wisdom is the knowledge that I do not know. The sad ones are those who waste their energy in trying to hold it back, for thy can only feel bitterness in loss and no joy in gain.”

“For me, photography is not a means by which to create beautiful art, but a unique way of encountering genuine reality”

“The beauty one can find in art is one of the pitifully few real and lasting products of human endeavor.”
