And your own life while it's happening to you never has any atmosphere until it's a memory.

I loved working when I worked at commercial art and they told you what to do and how to do it and all you had to do was correct it and they'd say yes or no. The hard thing is when you have to dream up the tasteless things to do on your own.

When I was in the hospital after I was shot they gave me drugs, but it was so great to get off those.

Sometimes something can look beautiful just because it's different in some way from the other things around it. One red petunia in a window box will look very beautiful if all the rest of them are white, and vice-versa.

I'm the type who'd be happy not going anywhere as long as I was sure I knew exactly what was happening at the places I wasn't going to. I'm the type who'd like to sit home and watch every party that I'm invited to on a monitor in my bedroom.

Everybody has a different idea of love. One girl I know said, "I knew he loved me when de didn't come in my mouth.

It's great not to be a collector.
