Perhaps there would be more anxiety in my work if I lived in New York.

Good art should elicit a response of 'Huh? Wow!' as opposed to ‘Wow! Huh?'

I'm interested in glorifying something that we in the world would say doesn't deserve being glorified. Something that's forgotten, focused on as though it were some sort of sacred object.

When I first did the book on gasoline stations, people would look at it and say, Are you kidding or what? Why are you doing this? In a sense, that's what I was after: I was after the head-scratching.

I just use [the camera]. I just pick it up like an axe when I've got to chop down a tree. I pick up a camera and go out and shoot the pictures I have to shoot.

I wasn't captivated by the romance of Paris or London. I love visiting, but I'd rather be in L.A.

I know who saved my life, the Saviour!

And you know, I agree to everything:I will condemn, I will forget, I will give comfort to the enemy, Darkness will be light and sin lovely.

I really like the European carols, and I like that captivating sound that they have that isn't usually in Christmas songs.

The Oscars are a lot different when you are a nominee. You walk around with this big smile on your face, and everyone, even people who work for rival film companies, tells you they voted for you.

When you realize you want to invest the rest of your lifestyle with somebody, you want the rest of your life to commence as quickly as achievable.

I think most beauty tips that work and last are kind of old.

Different roads sometimes lead to the same castle. Who knows?

Many of my executives have worked with me since the beginning. I can be fair and decisive and encouraging as well as demanding.

Highways are full of careless drivers who are always too close in front of you.
