When famous people come up to you it's a bit weird, but it's an honour, really, when they recognise you and want to chat to you for a bit.
Learn from the past, set vivid, detailed goals for the future, and live in the only moment of time over which you have any control: now.
We need to walk into the future, no matter how unnerving, with open eyes if society is to keep pace with technology.
I actually think Johannesburg represents the future. My version of what I think the world is going to become looks like Johannesburg.
It is funny how it is almost more painful to fall over and scrape your knee than to be blown up. Your body goes into incredible protection mode.
You know, it was just another presentation of my work, and a funny one, because the cards are quite different from the normal Tarot deck, no?
What's great about having an audience is they can let you know what they don't think is funny, and you can just cut that out and keep trying.
The funny thing is that when you have any form of presentation to your band, meaning you have the foresight to see outside of your creativity, you have a bigger vision.
I did turn down 'The Virgin Suicides.' I talked to the producers about it, and I just honestly told them that I didn't get it. Is it supposed to be funny, is it a thriller, what is it?
I regard Christian and Jewish fundamentalism, and all other forms of fundamentalism, as the enemies of God - and I hope you'll quote me on that.
One of the things that I am happy about in my life as an artist is that I am not considered a Hispanic artist.
I have lived most of my life in Paris, but I have a connection with Rome that I have with no other place. I'm attached by invisible strings.
Each project, I suffer like I'm starting over again in life. There's a lot of healthy insecurity that fuels this stuff.
For most Olympic athletes, their training is their hardest challenge and where they push themselves to the limit. For Paralympians, training and competition is an escape from the hardships and struggles of their everyday life. That is the difference.
There are particular images that I like. Allegro is composed of a series of still life photographs that has been put to speed. There is so much care that has gone into the composition of the cinematography.
When you are modelling, you are creating a picture, a still life, perhaps something like a silent film. You convey emotion but you are only using your body.
Since I was a child, my whole life has revolved around music. It's often while listening to a song that ideas for my fashion collections formed.
No one will ever know what I went through to secure those negatives. The world can never appreciate it. It changed the whole course of my life.
I went through a pretty big David Bowie period when I was younger, and that has affected me profoundly in my life and my work.
The only thing that mattered was what you were to do in life, and it wasn't about money. It was about teaching, or learning.
I still love taking pictures with Polaroid film. For me, it offers the most beautiful way of capturing reality and transferring it onto a flat piece of paper.
