Photographer Mario Testino: "When I came to study in London in 1976, I moved into an unconverted floor of a hospital. A dossers’ [vagrants'] home. I didn’t have money to eat, let alone get a bus. So I have never lost the sense that tomorrow I might not have any work ... I still have mortgages and still pay wages and the way things are going in my business even I could run out of money. I don’t think I will ever have enough money. I don’t think I will ever retire. I’m 54. I’m a spender. I like spending on projects." [Telegraph UK]
