Rooms Quotes

“The state of mind of a fighter is so important. I don't like to see a fighter stay locked up in a room. Sometimes it works against them. They think and they worry.

“The world was held in a savage gloom - cold and intolerable. Outside, all was quiet - quiet!

“I never went to school for that. In high school we had photography, which was great. That was another moment of discovery. I had a great teacher - I can't even remember her name now.

But I would sneak out and sneak into the dark room and work all night.”
