“Get a good pair of walking shoes and…fall in love”
- Abbas

“Give it all you got for at least 5 years and then decide if you got what it takes. Too many great talents give up at the very beginning; the great black hole looming after the comfortable academy or university years is the number one killer of future talent.”
- Carl De Keyzer

“My advice: “Photograph who you are!””
- Bruce Gilden

“Throw yourself off a cliff. Figuratively speaking, I mean. Photography is a language. Think about what you want to use it to talk about. What are you interested in? What questions do you want to ask? Then, go for it, and throw yourself into talking about that topic, using photography. Make a body of work about that.”
- Jonas Bendiksen

I first read these snippets of advice 3 years. So great to come across them again. You can find the original Magnum article here.
