Sebastiao Salgado Quotes

What I want is the world to remember the problems and the people I photograph. What I want is to create a discussion about what is happening around the world and to provoke some debate with these pictures. Nothing more than this. I don’t want people to look at them and appreciate the light and the palate of tones. I want them to look inside and see what the pictures represent, and the kind of people I photograph Picture Quote #1

I try with my pictures to raise a question, to provoke a debate, so that we can discuss problems together and come up with solutions Picture Quote #1

I have been photographing the portrait of an end of an era, as machines and computers replace human workers. What we have in these pictures is an archeology Picture Quote #1

The language that photography has is a formal language. Any photographer is doing something formal. If it’s formal, then it must be an aesthetic way to communicate Picture Quote #1

There comes a moment when it is no longer you who takes the photograph, but receives the way to do it quite naturally and fully Picture Quote #1

Of course I will continue photography. I love photography. But when you become old, it’s too much Picture Quote #1

I have tried to bring about better communication between people. I believe that humanitarian photography is like economics. Economy is a kind of sociology, as is documentary photography Picture Quote #1

... my way of photographing is my way of life. I photograph from my experience, my way of seeing things Picture Quote #1

In the end, the only heritage we have is our planet, and I have decided to go to the most pristine places on the planet and photograph them in the most honest way I know, with my point of view, and of course it is in black and white, because it is the only thing I know how to do Picture Quote #1

There are moments that you suffer a lot, moments you won’t photograph. There are some people you like better than others. But you give, you receive, you cherish, you are there. When you are really there, you know when you see the picture later what you are seeing Picture Quote #1

I tell a little bit of my life to them, and they tell a little of theirs to me. The picture itself is just the tip of the iceberg Picture Quote #1

I work alone. Humans are incredible, because when you come alone, they will receive you, they accept you, they protect you, they give you all things that you need, and they teach you all things you must know. When you come with two persons or three persons, you have a group in front of them. They don’t discuss with the new persons what is important to them Picture Quote #1
