Actually, I didn't study photography at first. I went to school for painting my first year, poetry my second year, graphic design my third and fourth year, and photography my fifth.

I didn't have much of a life in crime as a graffiti writer.

My photographs are a celebration of life, fun and the beautiful. They are a world that doesn't exist. A fantasy. Freedom is real. There are no rules. The life I wish I was living.

I've been attracted to Kate Moss since I was a teenager.

It's weird being a photographer because you really have to divorce yourself from the image.

I don't want to be an artist that gets stuck doing one thing. I don't want to be an artist who people look back at and say, 'His early work was really great.

I think the driving force when I moved to New York was the fear of going home with my tail between my legs.

In a lot of ways I look at these old photos, and I don't know if I would have been able to communicate with these people on this level if I didn't have a camera. I think I would still be so shy.

I just remember how excited I was to have a boyfriend and be in love and to document it.

I'm making the art for me first. I'm making it because these are the pictures I want to see. I'm making pictures that don't yet exist.

I spent all of my money on film. I remember I would do these set-design jobs or transcribe or just anything to get, like, a $100 check and go immediately to Adorama and buy expired film.

It's your fiction that interests me. Your studies of the interplay of human motives and emotion.

The impulse to all movement and all form is given by [the golden ratio], since it is the proportion that summarizes in itself the additive and the geometric, or logarithmic, series.

When you hear tracks everybody immediately thinks that nobody is really playing or singing. That's not the case at all.

In Spain people have lunch and dinner a lot later - when I return to England I'll have to eat alone at midnight.

I think it's really important with kids just to show them the beauty of nature and teach them a profound respect for nature.

It is not about bits, bytes and protocols, but profits, losses and margins.

If I was dealing with a trader, every other word had to be a four-letter word.

What I have done in my nine year career was just a glimpse of what I can do.

I love salon days to pamper myself, do my nails.

Anything less than mad, passionate, extraordinary love is a waste of time. There are too many mediocre things in life to deal with and love shouldn't be one of them.
