Cartier-Bresson on Photography as an Affirmation

I came across this video originally produced in the early 1970's. 

Henri Cartier-Bresson talks about the need to forget oneself when photographing.

He says a photograph can be like a warm kiss.

He says shooting a picture is being present ... like saying, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Photography is an affirmation.
