Any man can be a father. It takes someone special to be a dad.

The best images are the ones that retain their strength and impact over the years, regardless of the number of times they are viewed.

The hardest thing in photography is to create a simple image.

I photograph from the heart. I adore little babies and I think that shows. My images are really very positive, very simple, and from the heart. Babies speak a universal language.

I have a deep respect and love for these tiny humans, and I hope to convey in my images a measure of the beauty that exists in all children.

Children are the true believers, and some of us are lucky enough to make the transition to adulthoood without ever losing the ability to see through young eyes.

The trouble with flowers is that invariably, when I'm ready to photograph them, they are not in season.

I can't think of any flower that wouldn't be suitable to merge with an image of a newborn, and as I was planning for the book, Miracle, I was drawn to blossoms that appealed to me artistically.

The difference between companies that make $100, 000 vs those that make $1bn dollars within the same industry is paying attention to detail.

I think when you take people who are damaged and you give them money and freedom, it can be a toxic cocktail.

My style is simple, kinda girly, but with a bit of an edge.

But when you're a celebrity, you discover that you're no longer the pursuer, but the one being pursued. That's one of the disappointments I have had since becoming a single man.

Republican candidate Ben Carson told reporters he thinks American prisons might be too comfortable. As opposed to Mexican prisons that have personal showers with $5 million escape tunnels.

Before you complain today, be grateful you have breath to complain with.

Look, I am living. On what? Neither childhood nor future lessens . . . . Superabundant existence wells in my heart.

You can't get different results by doing things the same way.

What's difficult to understand about German opera? It's always the same. Boy meets girl, boy falls in love, girl gets devoured by horrible winged creature with claws.

In Soviet Russia, party always finds you!
