Play the Piano Drunk Like a Percussion Instrument Until the Fingers Begin to Bleed a Bit.

Understand me. I’m not like an ordinary world. I have my madness, I live in another dimension and I do not have time for things that have no soul.

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

Can you remember who you were, before the world told you who you should be?

People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.

Find what you love and let it kill you.

If something burns your soul with purpose and desire, it’s your duty to be reduced to ashes by it. Any other form of existence will be yet another dull book in the library of life.

Love is a fog that burns with the first daylight of reality.

Sometimes I feel as if we are all trapped in a movie. We know our lines, where to walk, how to act, only there is no camera. Yet, we can't break out of the movie. And it's a bad one.

I stopped looking for a Dream Girl, I just wanted one that wasn't a nightmare.

Only things the dreamers make live on. They are the eternal conquerors.

Most fast food is fried. Fried food tastes great, and people don't seem to care about the fat aspect.

Success is tricky to deal with, both professionally and in your personal life.

The one thing I never want to do is act drunk or act high. You don’t do it from a mental kind of place because then you’re just acting.

Each decade, I've lived in that decade, so I could easily shed the '20s, the '30s, the '40s.

A sly old fish, too cunning for the hook.

When I finish a book, I'm so exhausted that I'm sort of letting myself think that this could be the end.

And I realized that directing actors is really important because that's what ends up on screen.

I write a good amount. I've been gathering up a backlog of stuff and maybe I'll do something with it someday, but I don't want to talk about it just yet because that would jinx it.
