You must plan to be spontaneous.

I was 18 when I first visited London, I'm very provincial like that, but I must confess the moment I got to America I thought: This is the place. It was more open, with 24-hour cities and pubs and restaurants that didn't close.

I've always been a looker. Loads of people say, "I never saw that" - but that's what artists do.

A lot of people, given the chance, would blow up everything, and you and me.

It's no good saying I wished I could go out more, because I can't. But I don't bother about it too much.

I think Picasso was, without doubt, the greatest portraitist of the 20th century, if not any other century.

As for the world of fashion and celebrity, I have the usual interest in the human comedy, but the problems of depiction absorb me more.
