I don't think I treat my film work as an extension of my photography. There are two different sets of rules there.

Photography was the only thing that mattered in my life and I gave it everything.

I don’t crop my images and I always shoot handheld. By doing that I build in a kind of imperfection and this helps to emphasize reality.

I work using the Brian Eno school of thinking: limit your tools, focus on one thing and just make it work… You become very inventive with the restrictions you give yourself.

My biggest fear always is that I’ll photograph an idea rather than a person, so I try to be quite sensitive to how people are.

By self-analysis you can not change your character, but you may change your mentality.

Photography has taken me from isolation.

I've gotten used to not looking too far into the future; it's best when you can begin each day anew.

With photography, you are lucky if you get people to look at your pictures at some point. There's no formal way to show them.

I have such a love of good music that I find even melancholic music uplifting. Maybe I'm a rare breed.

Body language is so important, as is composition. You can not say something, and then the body reacts, and it says a lot of things dialogue can also say.

Romeo Must Die was the first film that I did where I was able to just be free as an actor.

You cannot tell an audience a lie. They know it before you do; before it's out of your mouth, they know it's a lie.

No, I don't have a boyfriend, I don't want one.

There are too many brands. You can start your own brand from your bedroom. It's a good thing and a bad thing.

God wants the world to function in an orderly way, not a chaotic way, so teaching humans to do what's right and what will make for the happiest life isn't going to be off limits.

Sometimes you write a song in a certain era and it's got a certain kind of significance.

My body has been making women laugh for the last 20 years and I'm happy to continue to oblige.

The hand expresses what the heart already knows.

When it comes to the big issues like immigration, everyone has a role. The government has a role. The church has a role. Every Christian has a role.

But ye gotta know where ye're just gonna rush in. Ye cannae just rush in anywhere. It looks bad, havin' to rush oout again straight awa'.
