What Did You Say: Richard Avedon

"I believe in maniacs.  I believe in type As.  I believe that you've got to love your work so much that it is all you want to do.  I believe you must betray your mistress for your work, you must betray your wife for your work;  I believe that she must betray you for her work.  I believe that work is the one thing in the world that never betrays you, that lasts.  If I were going to be a politician, if I were going to be a scientist, I would do it every day.  I wouldn't wait for Monday.  I don't believe in weekend."
