I became the toast of London. A lot of people I met came from these really decadent families where the married men were gay and no one thought anything about it.

If I have to change my lifestyle, I don't want to live.

I was a Catholic boy, I went to church every Sunday. A church has a certain magic and mystery for a child. It still shows in how I arrange things. It's always little altars.

I don't use recreational drugs, except for cocaine, hallucinogens, and nitrates.

My father wants me to be like my brother, but I can't be.

This AIDS stuff is pretty scary. I hope I don't get it.

I think that it was a great advantage to go into photography not knowing much about it. Not thinking. I think one of the problems with many photographers today is that they never see for themselves, but just like everybody else.
