I never read theory. I think that was to my benefit.
Nan Goldin
I like it [Rotterdam] much better than Amsterdam which is too much like a postcard. It's too cute for me. Rotterdam is more real, it's got a stomach.

I know somewhat about Kate [Moss who featured in the Vogue spread]. I always thought that Kate's look had come from my old friend Siobhan Liddell and some of her friends because they dressed like that about ten years ago. Unconsciously, and right after that, that whole look sort of came out.

It's so rare to see a woman's sexuality, real female sexuality, either in the shows or in the clothes.
Nan Goldin
The main thing that I want to say is that I don't think women are at their most beautiful in their adolescence or in their early 20s.
Nan Goldin
I start to paint my walls. And I'm heavily influenced by films.
Nan Goldin
No Jews have our own guilt, that's why we have psychiatrists - the Jewish version of a priest.
Nan Goldin
Usually people just do their own work. But I want to deal with the place and what it means to show in a mental hospital.
Nan Goldin
Gena Rowlands is fabulous.
Nan Goldin
My life is more important. At this point in my life I'm alone. I don't think about it a lot.
Nan Goldin
If I say something honestly, generally, I am being completely honest and don't tell me I am lying. It drives me crazy to be told I set up my pictures. How does it benefit me to lie? I guess they are afraid to believe it and are afraid to look at it.
