I am not God. But I can only do my role here on this planet. The role I feel I was given since I was a kid was to be making art and I only wanted to give and I never let money be my God.
David LaChapelleYou can't change people's minds, we are not God. We can do our best to do what we do, whatever job we have to bring sort of goodness out there. But we can't change people. As an artist what I can do is to communicate!
David LaChapelleI never want people to be repulsed with my pictures; I always want to attract people.
David LaChapelleThe key is to photograph your obsessions, whether thatโs old peopleโs hands or skyscrapers. Think of a blank canvas, because thatโs what youโve got, and then think about what you want to see. Not anyone else.
