Architecture was pretty much the sexiest thing to be doing from 1700-1800.

I'm driven by issues, not driven to be political.

I have a recurring nightmare that I wake up in a gutter with nothing. I've had it all my life. That's why I work, I think.

I've got a farm in Somerset, and I think it's God's own country. I love it.

I like the absurd and the surreal: the Coen brothers, Bunuel, Kubrick.

If you said to me, 'Lie down on that concrete floor and fall asleep,' I could do it. I can sleep anywhere at any time of day on any surface.

I don't enjoy living in a white box flooded with light. I like shadows, small spaces, old furniture.
