Henri Cartier-Bresson Quotes:

Ocupation: Photographer

Life: August 22, 1908 - August 3, 2004

Birthday: August 22

Death: August 3

To take photographs means to recognize - simultaneously and within a fraction of a second - both the fact itself and the rigorous organization of visually perceived forms that give it meaning. It is putting one's head, one's eye and one's heart on the same axis.

- Henri Cartier-Bresson
