"Is passion what we are? Is that what we are in pictures? Is what we are in pictures almost real? Maybe it's become the most real thing."

[On the] question of why we might want to look at images even more than the real thing: I think there is some quality when you look at an image of, not only seeing this thing, whether it's the horse or the sky, but you are seeing somebody point at it and say, Look!
