Nan Goldin
I had said that when the first Bush got elected that I would leave the country. And when the second Bush wasn't even elected properly.
Nan Goldin

Nan Goldin
The thing that drives me most crazy in the world is not to be believed.
Nan Goldin
[I want to] refuting the whole idea that there is only one way to look that women have to be so skinny to look good that they have to be 12 years old and wearing clothes that only women in their 30s and 40s can afford.
Nan Goldin
