My mother was the most amazing person. She taught me to be kind to other women. She believed in family. She was with my father from the first day they met. All that I am, she taught me.

I sometimes like the pictures photographers take of me.

But I always had the ability to say no. That's how I called my own shots.

In my case, the body of work stands for itself... I think my work has been representative of me as a man.

I have always been a learner because I knew nothing.

I think the way I want to think. I live the way I want to live.

I did not go into the film business to be symbolized as someone else's vision of me.
