I have certain viewpoints that come out in certain shayaris.
My photography is mainly focused on my work making movies, which I've done my whole life. I think I have a perspective that not many people have. And I get to take advantage of all of the strange sources of light on a set.
Music is an expression. It's almost like a diary in my life, you know. You express your perceptions and your view on life - your world view.
I look at the feminine body as a piece of art.
We don't take pictures with cameras, we take them with our hearts and minds.
A poet looks at the world the way a man looks at a woman.
To most people who look at a mobile, it's no more than a series of flat objects that move. To a few, though, it may be poetry.
My view of myself as an artist expanded because of the time I spent at Cal Arts.
I'm a dramatist. Dramatists have a right to look at history and interpret it the way they see it.
In the artist's recreation of the world we are enabled to see the world.
Poetry is not a way of saying things; it's a way of seeing things.
Up until 35 I had a slightly skewed world view. I honestly believed everybody in the world wanted to make abstract paintings, and people only became lawyers and doctors and brokers and things because they couldn't make abstract paintings.
There were nude pictures... a lot of it is erotic or sexual. But I don't view my collection as dirty in any way. I view it as art.
For me black is not dark, it's poetic. I don't think of gothic I think of classic - it's a big difference.
As an artist I just think comedic actors are really underrated.
Romantics consider common sense vulgar.
I've never written songs about relationships. I've written songs about how I feel. The songs are more about me, than another person. That's the way I like to look at it.
For many artists the universe is expanding; for some it is contracting.
My father was a proctologist and my mother was an abstract artist, so that's how I view the world.
I look at everything in an artistic way.
I look at music like an art form, so it's almost like painting for me, you know?
Nothing really attracts me to the film industry, to be perfectly honest. I look at acting as an art, and that's all it is for me. It's just fun.
I love looking at pieces of art through the eyes of a child.
It is impossible for me to envisage a picture as being other than a window, and why my first concern is then to know what it looks out on.
Not deep the poet sees, but wide.
