I knew I could live no other way, that the one thing I wanted was to act and do it well.

I kind of imagine myself at eighty, a cat lady.

Dreams, they're what sets us apart from being mere a brain and a body.

Like everybody I have many different sides.

Adults are just children sometimes. But evil, hurt children.

Because I'm not perfect looking, I get to play better roles.

My focus, my life, my world is now. You just can't plan the future.

What I get in rock 'n' roll that I don't get in movies is that connection with people. With music it's instantaneous, and just to watch people light up, it's really amazing. I love that connection.

Being beautiful can be a curse, especially if you want to be an artist and create.

The worst thing you can do to a kid is tell them that their dreams are invalid.

Rock'n'roll to me is a rebellion against the sterile pedestal culture of movies.

Instinct ensures animals to have society. Reason ensures society to have animals

Our life is full of empty space.

Not to be miserable is all some people are capable of.

If you are scared to go to the brink, you are lost.

I would probably say, 'Don't worry so much about stuff as you grow up.'

If anybody wanted to photograph my life, they'd get bored in a day.

The rapists of the intellectual world become politicians; the seducers become artists.

I know how I live my life. I have a little magnet brain that attracts the kind of things that obsess me.

So how are things going along? Pretty good. Going to be good tomorrow? Hope so.

An admiral should be put to death now and then to encourage the others.
