Sometimes I Have Taken Photographs And Just

But I Was In Awe Of The Painters; I Mean I Was New In New York, And I Thought The Painting That Was Going On Here Was Just Unbelievable

For The First Time, I Wasn't Embarrassed By The Look Of Beauty, Of Elegance, Because When You See Someone Who Has Only One Rag As Their Property, But It Happens To Be Beautiful And Pink And Silk, Beauty Doesn't Have To Be Separated... I Have Always Said That You Shouldn't Have Biases, You Shouldn't Have Prejudices. But Before That [before His Trip To India, Circa 1975] I'd Never Been Able To Use Purple, Because It Was Too Beautiful.

And I Think That Even Today, New York Still Has More Of This Unexpected Quality Around Every Corner Than Any Place Else. It's Something Quite Extraordinary

Success Is A Worn Down Pencil.

I Don't Want A Picture To Look Like Something It Isn't. I Want It To Look Like Something It Is.
