“I am kept awake by the list of possibilities for shooting more photos ...” — Martin Parr Quote

I am kept awake by the list of possibilities for shooting more photos and deciding what I must prioritise next.

I get up early and open my emails, write cheques, and answer the phone; whatever needs to be done.

My profile is bigger in Europe than it is in the U.K.

Margaret Thatcher was very good for the arts in so far as it gave people a real focus for something to be against.

I toyed with the notion of being an actor, and am so glad that this whim did not go any further.

Only that day dawns to which we are awake.

I think that part of being a good journalist, part of being an awake member of the world you're in, is to view yourself as an outsider, and I always have, to some degree.

I remember I played Birmingham and I'd been awake for about a week and I was walking about like a raving lunatic.

I'm always thinking about whatever game I'm working on. My brain works subconsciously on design pretty much every hour I'm awake.

Becoming a father has made my life a lot more interesting. It's like everything slows down because time goes slower, and you notice that you're actually awake for so many more hours. Your waking hours elongate because you're doing things at a child's pace.
