People have done pornographic pictures forever, but most of the people who involve themselves in explicit sexuality aren't really artists.

Beauty and the devil are the same thing.

I went into photography because it seemed like the perfect vehicle for commenting on the madness of today's existence.

If a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up.

I think for more than half of my career I have refrained from talking to the media.

I'm naturally thin, so I don't have to work too hard at it. I love food, but I also love to work out. I think it makes everything work better.

If you're looking to become an entrepreneur then don't waste your time going to university or business school - just get on and do it.

True humility means total dependence on God for everything.
