I stayed in New York City for the first time, I'd always wanted to do that.

I hate playing pretty or sane people. Most people are not attractive or all there.

I love theatrical props: a cup filled with solid fake tea, say, or a collection of fake food, including a rubber turkey, which, during the holidays, I wrap in tinfoil so it appears to have just come out of the oven.

I did shoplift but I didn't get in trouble for it. I shoplifted a lot when I was little. Candy. I would steal candy.

Gift-wrap the framed artwork on your walls and rehang them - what's nicer than a wall of presents to look at?

It's natural for humans to suppress urges, for when our desires are left unchecked they lead to broken relationships, prison time, and forest fires.

I just like to have the ideas. Other people can help see them through.
