I live in the day. Yes, I make plans for tomorrow, but I don't get so consumed by it. The time you spend with your family and friends, whatever you could be doing, enjoy them now. I live in the day.

You have to give an element of performance on television.

I have always loved broadcasting - as a child in Liverpool, I would wake up and listen to Morning Merseyside on BBC Radio Merseyside and wonder, 'How do they do that?'

I was terrified about people knowing I was gay. I'd cringe inside at the idea that they'd be talking behind my back.

For 'Paul's Boutique,' we had a lot more money and a lot more time. It was definitely more on our own terms.

If I had sat around and waited until I had an idea to be a successful photographer, I would still be in finance.

Watch the walls come down, whether it's in the South or on Wall Street. When the walls come down, what do we find? More markets, more talent, more capital and growth. Which means that the race and sex discrimination stunt economic growth. It's not good for capitalism. It's not good for America's growth. And it's not morally right.

At the beginning, you are 20 and you can just imagine... don't get me wrong, but having money. Then you realise that it's not only about you and what you are doing but that you have to give back.
