From my point of view, being out is not about anything political. It's just because I can't be bothered to be in.

I loved looking at myself when I was very photogenic, at the very beginning of my career.

It's amazing the clarity that comes with psychotic jealousy.

To give and not expect anything in return, that is what lies at the heart of love.

I seem to have been everywhere in the last 30 years, maybe not in the epicenter but flying around the periphery of extraordinary events and equally extraordinary people.

I have nothing to complain about.. except maybe people wondering if a queen like me can be butch-it-up enough to play a convincing straight man.

I smell of sweat. I don't like people smelling of all these weird things. I think deodorant is disgusting.

Authority figures are so irritating. Because they always tell you to do things for reasons that aren't very good. That sums up what authority is about for me.

You're not allowed to be an eccentric in the world, you have to fit it.

I was basically adventurous, I think I wanted to try everything.

You don't have INSOMNIA. You're a writer with an unfinished book!

A few of the artists knew my name, because I have an unusual name, from Rolling Stone.

The philosophical I is not the human being, not the human body or the human soul with the psychological properties, but the metaphysical subject, the boundary (not a part) of the world.

There is a big difference between being good and being great.

Art after all is but an extension of language to the expression of sensations too subtle for words.

I always tried to do the best for my kid.

Heaven doesn't laugh. It just smiles and stares.
