My taste in music and entertainment is quite eclectic.

I grew up in Greenwich Village. Dad was friends with John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

I'm open to sci-fi, but I was never a diehard fan. I have no idea why it keeps following me. I'm extremely lucky, I guess; it's a lucrative venue.

I think sometimes women who are supposed to be strong are also written as mean and vindictive.

I never worked less than 16-hour days on South Beach.

My father used to sing to me in my mother's womb. I think I can name about any tune in two beats.

My junior high was dreadful. I see a lot of my fellow alumni on America's Most Wanted.

I've spent a lot of time and money trying to keep my anger in control.

My grandfather was a cop in Long Island. I often try to draw on things that I've heard about him.

Don't we all just really try to fake it well?

Sometimes words are not enough.

Beasts kill for hunger, men for pay.

Critics are already made.

Don't get so locked in to your overwhelming schedule that you haphazardly spend your soul.
