I can't have just anybody assisting me, I need somebody who I can really communicate with.

Beauty and the devil are the same thing.

To make pictures big is to make them more powerful.

Sell the public flowers... things that they can hang on their walls without being uptight.

I am selfish, but that's an attribute that all artists possess.

I am obsessed with beauty. I want everything to be perfect, and of course it isn’t. And that’s a tough place to be because you’re never satisfied.

If I am at a party, I want to be at the party. Too many photographers use the camera to avoid participating in things. They become professional observers.

My ideas aren't afraid of height.

The fires of hell were seventy times hotter than the fires of the iron.

But no, I don't really like romantic comedies, so I don't really care. I never go see 'em.

I come from a world where you get the film done, that's a success.

By reaching out, more comes back than you can possibly imagine.

In order to gain the respect of your players in the locker room, you can't just perform on Saturday. You have to do it consistently during practices, meetings, and in the weight room.

[I'm] as broke as the ten commandments.
