Celebrity is just obscurity biding its time.

I've never been that uncomfortable talking about it. Things come out [in the media] about me. When it's out, it's someone else's version of what's the matter with me. I want it to be my version of what it is. My recourse is to do my version.

Certainly there are people who like me, but then there are those who don't know me who gossip about me. You can't believe the things I've heard.

I was born imagining myself with an apron on, with pies cooling on the window sill and babies crying upstairs. I thought that all that stuff would somehow anchor me to the planet, that it was the weight I needed to keep from just flying off into space.

I was born into big celebrity. It could only diminish.

It's very good to get through them (drugs) while you're still young and then talk about how great or bad it was for the rest of your life.

I used to want to gamble, too, until I was 20 and could actually go to a casino. Then I wasn't so crazy about the attitude.
