You can't really copy what I do because I don't do anything.

Actors are hard to photograph because they never want to reveal who they are. You don't know if you're getting a character from a Chekhov play or a Polanski film. It depends what mood they're in.

In France they don't think I'm difficult.

The skull is nature's sculpture.

I had a terrible time with feminists in the Seventies. They hated me, those women. I think they hated everything.

My paintings are rubbish.

Sometimes I still can't believe my luck.
