After the First World War, it was, like, let's form the League of Nations, we have to learn to work together. It's the only way we're going to survive. And now it's like we're undoing these very fragile institutions that were built after the First and Second World Wars that were about nations working on a kind of global diplomacy for our mutual benefit. And we're undoing them at such rapid-fire pace.

I don't think any of us thought Donald Trump could get this far.

I'd grown up poor; I had no idea what it was like to be comfortable.

I never heard the term "art world" until I was in my thirties, and I was like, "What are you guys talking about?" It's the world, and we all live in the world!

What attracts me in photography is not so much a fine arts approach, but rather photographs as documents... All the ways in which human beings have documented the world in an attempt to order it, in an attempt to consume it or rule it or hang on to it in some sense.

What I've always liked about photography is that it's such a direct way of showing what's on my mind. I see something. I show it to you.

By nature, I'm a little distractible. I get very overwhelmed by the world.
