I would consider him definitely one of my very best friends and I know he feels the same about me. We have a lot of love and respect.

It seems like the chaos of this world is accelerating, but so is the beauty in the consciousness of more and more people.

As long as a person is breathing, there is hope for them.

Sometimes, out of really horrible things come really beautiful things.

I would have to say the person with whom I am most in love is definitely my son, Everly Bear. Although I'm his dad, I'm also his friend.

I had not had any drugs for 5 years but then I relapsed again. I have also smoked nearly everything. Every day it was a battle to recover, which I fought for my son and myself.

My days are whatever I want them to be. I don't have to go worry about chasing some chemical to make me feel OK for a minute, and then make me feel worse.

Every true artist is at war with the world.

I think art is inherently nonviolent and it actually occupies your mind with creation rather than destruction.

Just the kind of girl I liked—the weirdo in the bunch.

To be 26 years old and lose your left heart ventricle was probably the most dramatic thing that's ever happened to me in my life...

Making a name for yourself comes from working hard

Business is constantly changing, constantly evolving.

Politicians are a set of men who have interests aside from the interests of the people and who, to say the most of them, are, taken as a mass, at least one long step removed from honest men

Which is scarier-- lust or temptation?

Passing beauties are only the fugitive reflectios of the eternal.

I've never been on the cover of Empire. I'm very bitter. I've got an award but now I feel sad and cross.

For me, the music is always like the small rowboat I get into at the very beginning of my process.

I don't remember what made me want to be an actor. In fact, I'm always curious.

I'm a God-fearing man who worships with my heart and with my life.

For myself I don't like the geisha look. It's like a mask.
