Everywhere you look in L.A., you're reminded of what you're a part of - or what you're not a part of. And everyone you meet is talking about the same thing all the time.

I have sporadic OCD cleaning moments around the house. But then I get lazy and I'm cured. It's a very inconsistent personality trait.

I feel like I'm ready for any dangerous situation that might come my way, provided I have a hammer on me.

Keeping an open mind is always important.

Any time you have someone come up and say they love what you do and they get great joy from it is a very humbling experience.

Meekness is the mark of a man who has been mastered by God.

In my photographs it is apparent that there was no posing at the moment I released the shutter.

No acts are random or wasted.

It is absurd to quote religion or God or religious doctrines to render the people as lowest castes.
