Very few males have the confidence to appear vulnerable.

I'm not a good photographer, not a good writer. I'm a pretty regular person whose insecurity is so pervasive that it makes me always feel vulnerable.

I couldn't be Susan Sontag. I'm not very good with abstract thought. I always just take to the emotional core of me.

When I read something, I picture that scene in that detail. That becomes very similar to composing a photo in real life.

I think that's very sad, that I haven't allowed my heart to be broken. I have broken a few.

The thing that makes writing so difficult is you don't have the element of serendipity. At least with a photograph, you can set up the camera, and something might happen. You might be a lousy photographer, but you can get a good picture if you just take enough of them.
