Pictures don't get better the longer you're around the subject. The magic goes. If I go to Delhi, I get off the plane and I start photographing because days later it all starts to look normal.

Market analogy–once you know what your looking for, you will know straight away if there's a trade there. That's why I can't teach anyone, why I'm not a big education man. I think they're a bunch of parrots all learning the same thing.

Market analogy– too much education directs everyone in the same place. You need to be creative in your own right.

Because black and white gives you the message immediately. Colour's a warning thing. Berries are red so that the birds know to eat them. When they're green they don't eat them. When you look at a colour picture you see the colour before you see the message.

Market analogy– don't concentrate too much on the details, just get with the form.

Here is an interesting conversation with notorious photographer David Bailey for more insights on this topic.
