In my philosophy, the meaning of life derives from the people one has known and loved, who have made life inexhaustible in its richness. I have met my share of evil people and know what they are capable of ( I was at the liberation of the camp Dachau) but I have always held that evil is not inherent in men and women. I still believe that given a caring society, only the best in people will flourish. That is the spirit that has moved me to photograph.
