I'm not ashamed of my body and you know everything in the fashion world, if I was vulnerable to it, could drive me crazy. I think it produces so much self-hatred.

I'm very much interested in water and women in water. I've been photographing that for years although I didn't really know it at the time.

I don't think of Maria Schneider like idol anymore, because I worshipped her when I was young.

The only time I went out was to go to bars at night and all the pictures were taken with a flash because there was no light at all. However now I'm very interested in light.

I have the freedom of seeing it [churches and paintings of saints] with a non-Catholic eye without the guilt.

I think the wrong things are kept private

I think it's obscene that many people are starving to death from anorexia. It's been said many times, it's trite. But when so much evil is going on against, for example the Afghani people, where women are being so oppressed that a woman's body is a battlefield.
