The prejudice many photographers have against colour photography comes from not thinking of colour as form. You can say things with colour that can’t be said in black and white… Those who say that colour will eventually replace black and white are talking nonsense. The two do not compete with each other. They are different means to different ends.

[cited in: Introduction by Bryn Campbell, “European Colour Photography” (exhibition catalogue), The Photographers’ Gallery, London, 1978, p. 14]
