I've always considered myself a writer.

Robert was concerned with how to make the photograph, and I with how to be the photograph.

I'm from South Jersey: The idea of eating a roll with olive oil and anchovies or some kind of sardine and drinking mint tea definitely comes from reading Paul Bowles.

My mother answers all my fan mail.

Sometimes I get lost in watching a film. The sorrow, or the frustration, is when it doesn't happen for a long time.

I didn't waste my time on things I didn't love.

Put down your cell phones, put everything away, and feel your blood pulsing in you, feel your creative impulse, feel your own spirit, your heart, your mind. Feel the joy of being alive and free.
