I'm not insecure. I've been through way too much f**king sh*t to be insecure. I've got huge balls. But I've been humbled. That makes you grateful for every day you have.
That thing, that moment, when you kiss someone and everything around becomes hazy and the only thing in focus is you and this person and you realize that that person is the only person that youre supposed to kiss for the rest of your life, and for one moment you get this amazing gift and you want to laugh and you want to cry because you feel so lucky that you found it and so scared that that it will go away all at the same time.
If you’re 35 and single and it’s a choice, it feels fine. So I didn’t settle with the wrong person yet. Big deal!
I'm such a workaholic. I'm always thinking about work.
Every morning I stay in bed for ten minutes to ponder my place in the universe. Then I wash my face and check my karma
Indecision is the most unsexy thing on the planet. I don't know if I'm sexy but I think decisiveness is sexy. I also lose trust and faith in them when I realise I'm a bit on my own and that's a very disheartening feeling.
I just think everything is a learning experience and every moment that you have that actually feels good inside of your heart is an absolute blessing and a gift.
In a world and a life that moves so fast, photography just makes the sound go out and it makes you stop and take a pause. Photography calms me.
I don't cook, I can't cook, and it is really abominable to see me in the kitchen. I order in takeaway food or get my friends to cook because a lot of them are very good.
My culinary skills are terrible. I can't even make toast taste good. I do make scrambled eggs for myself sometimes but I wouldn't even inflict that on anyone else.
I have no regrets in my life whatsoever.
I love writing, directing and photography; if I could figure out a way to put the three things together, that's what I would love to do.
It's embarrassing to go through any rebellious stage in front of people that you love and respect, and yet I'm glad I did.
From my perspective, there's no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you're lucky! The alternative is death.
