Exploits

My exploits are nothing now to the average person.

Nov 07, 2020

The reason I did fashion was it was the only way to get paid to do anything creative. You couldn't support yourself as an 'artist' - I hate that word. The only way you could be 'arty' was as a fashion photographer, because it still had a certain amount of integrity involved.

France
|

Children
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was a terrible father. The most I ever did for my children was to teach them chess. At least they got that.

Men
|
Nov 07, 2020

Dangerous

Prison
|

Instead of putting someone in prison for being a hooligan, give him a choice. He may have beaten someone up and he's got eight years, but tell him you can do eight years inside or spend five years in the Army. Put him in the Parachute Regiment, they'd soon sort him out.

Imagination
|
Nov 07, 2020

It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the extraordinary.

Man

Nov 07, 2020

Every man who is high up loves to think that he has done it all himself; and the wife smiles, and lets it go at that.

Eating
