I'm always amazed at how people make work no matter how intense the pressure.

What I've always liked about photography is that it's such a direct way of showing what's on my mind. I see something. I show it to you.

Progress is always an exchange. We gain something, we give something else up. I'm interested in looking at some of what we are losing.

I'm in all of my work, and there's nowhere to hide when you make work.

I never heard the term "art world" until I was in my thirties, and I was like, "What are you guys talking about?" It's the world, and we all live in the world!

You need to have your eyes open because it's really scary what's happening.

I choose to work behind the camera. And I kind of want to make the work and then run away. The presentation of myself really feels complicated for me.

The world feels overwhelming to me on every level. Just the number of organisms that live on this planet. Our politics, our violence, psychology, emotions; there's just a lot going on, right?

I like getting stuff out of the way so you can see something clearly, see it sharply, have it be new again.

When people look at a photograph, they believe it... My photographs crawl along that edge. I document the world, but from my own biased point of view.

I think making things that appear simple is incredibly hard.

When you have the power of time, you can take possession of your time, there is nothing you cannot become.

I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality.

Carelessness about our security is dangerous, carelessness about our freedom is also dangerous.

Let's have a moment of silence for all the chubby Asian dudes that are getting 'Gangnam style!' yelled at them by bros around the world.

Unlike Hillary Clinton, who has risked so many lives with her careless handling of sensitive information, my administration will not telegraph exactly military plans and what they are.

I really like that homosexuality is a little bit of an existential puzzle.

I go to my Room and I drink and I smoke some cigarettes and I think about her. I drink and I smoke and I think about her and at a certain point blackness comes and my memory fails me.

Sometimes you have to get rid of something that's good, and tinker with something that's better.

If we look at the realm of knowledge, how exceedingly small and limited is that part acquired through our own senses; how wide is that we gain from other sources.

Democrats believe in reigniting the American dream by removing barriers to success and building ladders of opportunity for all, so everyone can succeed.
