I always hope that young people will think for themselves and also most importantly, understand that they should judge themselves on their own merit, their good deeds, however simple, to not judge themselves by what they have materially, by what other people think of them, through social media.

What a model of an artist was for me was an artist who worked. Picasso was the ultimate model, because the work ethic he had.

Those were the things on my mind [stay healthy, take care of my kids and reestablish a relationship with the people], not career, money, drugs, sex, alcohol or fun. Not that there's anything wrong with any of those things, but they aren't in the film [Dream of Life], because that wasn't my life at the time.

It's not that I have compromised or anything, but it's always been important to me to take good care of myself and be a good example. I'm not much a role model in terms of hair care, though.

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

I'm an artist. I'm interested in how art gets made.

Spare the child and spoil the rod, I am not sellin' myself to god.
