The camera is my tool. Through it I give a reason to everything around me.

- Andre Kertesz

Seeing is not enough; you have to feel what you photograph

- Andre Kertesz

The photographer's art is a continuous discovery which requires patience and time.

- Andre Kertesz

My talent lies in the fact that I cannot touch a camera without expressing myself.

- Andre Kertesz

Of course a picture can lie, but only if you are not honest with yourself.

- Andre Kertesz

People in motion are wonderful to photograph. It means catching the right moment... when one thing changes into something else.

- Andre Kertesz

The moment always dictates in my work. What I feel, I do. This is the most important thing for me. Everybody can look, but they don't necessarily see…

- Andre Kertesz

I just walk around, observing the subject from various angles until the picture elements arrange themselves into a composition that pleases my eye.

- Andre Kertesz

I do what I feel, that's all. I am an ordinary photographer working for his own pleasure. That's all I've ever done.
