How strange, when your father's wearing women's clothes and platform shoes, that a pair of loafers looks incredible.

My Dad was so open creatively that I was off in search of black turtleneck bathing suits with long sleeves.

I spent most of my life locked in my bedroom, miserable about my raging acne.

It occurred to me, when I was old enough to make rules of my own, that they should be fair and simple.

I had a friend whose family had dinner together. The mother would tuck you in at night and make breakfast in the morning. They even had a spare bike for a friend. It just seemed so amazing to me.

I made enough money to buy a house. That's crazy, but fame proved ephemeral.

Everyone has flaws. It's a matter of finding the ones you can live with.

The idea of licking stamps seemed great fun for me.

I didn't have any concept of age or authority. I remember realising, Oh, the world has rules and we don't.

I think I have a dark view of the world. I have to make everything funny, otherwise it all seems so sad.

I have a tree man coming to trim the jacaranda in my front garden.

The truth is that our way of celebrating the Christmas season does spring from myriad cultures and sources, from St. Nicholas to Coca-Cola advertising campaigns.

The music industry has always been a beast, which would eat you up and spit you out.

There are angels near you to guide you and protect you, if you would but invoke them. It is not later than we think, it is a bigger world than we think.

The humor for me is how far above your head the signature is - it's dislocated from the sign of the artist in such a distinct way that it could almost be a self-portrait of a sort.

For Wayfarers still journeying, for Wanderers at rest.

If we were meant to talk more than listen, we would have two mouths and one ear.

Dirty old men, ignoring society, continue to follow nature.

I have taken roads that I wished I had not traveled on. And I'm traveling on some pretty exciting ones, too.

The playthings of our elders are called business.
