"I didn't tell anyone that I was going. I don't need someone else telling me what to do. I just sold everything and split: I'm the sort of person who mulls things over but never discusses their plans. I felt the pull from an early ages. I must have been about 12 when I started to think about its bright lights. When I was living in California, the people I was attracted to always came from New York. They were totally different. I got sick of being in California because I never felt I belonged, but I can't ever imagine tiring of New York."
"Jeff's voice made you want to build shrines and I realize now that Jeff Buckley was a shrine to his voice." Robert Gordon
"Jeff was such a hilarious comedian, an amazing mimic. One of the things that might get lost, with people who only knew him through his records was his sense of humor. In concert some of his more indulgent solo performances before he went on tour with the band, were just you know comedy acts almost. He was that on and always just an incredible wit. Just a funny guy and pick up anything, do like " Teen Spirit" or whatever the pop hit of the day was" Nicholas Hill
"I met Jeff a few times I guess, I think before I really felt like I met him. He was really capable of connecting like when he was present he was really present so he made you feel like you had known him for 150 years and that you were the most important person in his world at that time. He had just a phenomenal gift that way." Jack Mc Keever
"I think those two years on the road changed him alot... he was less of a clown, and more in need of a rest" Merri Cyr
"I just looked at him as a person, not as sort of that iconographic mythologic beastI didn't like the mythological person so well, because it was so much at the expense of the person" Merri Cyr
"I can remember hearing from people that on certain days that he was feeling bad, I would ring him up and leave him a message, and he'd ring back to say thanks, but if he was in that place, he'd acknowledge that you reached out and was very appreciative but at the same time you know, didn't settle well(?)" Jack Mc Keever
"It's very rare to meet someone who is so, so ready to be so honest, so unpretentious, so unwilling to lie about anything even if it protects them. that you that when Jeff was with you and ooking in your eyes there was noone more important to him than you at that moment. and that when he said he loved you, that was the strongest and truest love that could be loved, and that doesn't happen in this world you know, that doesn't happen." Mary Guibert
"He wanted to be so there, so on, so giving 24 hours a day. He really lived at a really intense pace." Ellen Cavolina
A Spanish quote translated: “You won’t get anything that you don’t ask for?” People can’t complain about not having something that you didn’t try to get. In general I am sensitive to people with negative outlooks.
I love the sport of ambition.
MOST PEOPLE NEED TO HAVE THE CONFIDENCE TO INVEST IN THEMSELVES.
YOU HAVE TO STICK YOUR NECK OUT.
YOU NEED THAT FEAR TO ACCOMPLISH THINGS.

I wish I had seen this video before I took my etching class, I have a lot more respect for the process after seeing his work~
Collaborations with Louis Vuitton:
I first heard of Campbell when he tattooed Heath Ledger.
He tattooed Heath's castmates from The Imaginirium of Dr. Parnassus with the heart Heath drew on a letter to the directors daughter, Holly Gilliam.
He also helped Ledger's plans for Five Leaves, a restuarant in Greenpoint, manifest in the Fall of 08. I had the chance to eat there a few times in 2009! Definitely my favorite restaurant.
He's had fine art exhibits, attracting everyone from tattooed kids to big name celebrities.
His art can be found on the bodies of Sting, Robert, Downey, Jr., Courtney Love, Orlando Bloom, Josh Hartnett, and Marc Jacobs.
