I've always been a bit flip.

All pictures are unnatural. All pictures are sad because they're about dead people. Paintings you don't think of in a special time or with a specific event. With photos I always think I'm looking at something dead.

I never cared for fashion much, amusing little seams and witty little pleats: it was the girls I liked.

The best advice I ever got was that knowledge is power and to keep reading.

I was a terrible father. The most I ever did for my children was to teach them chess. At least they got that.

If you're curious, London's an amazing place.

I don't think global warming is to do with us, I think it's a natural circle. I don't think a few Ferraris make that much difference.
