There are women in makeup and hair and wardrobe, but not in camera, not in sound, you know, and not in special effects. It's all men.

I mean, for years [my father] would been doing everything imaginable ... from speed to downers to you name it. I used to call that "changing seats on the Titanic," and I used to say that I myself was not only changing seats on the Titanic but dating the crew.

Good anecdote--bad reality.

I used to refer to my drug use as putting the monster in the box. I wanted to be less, so I took more - simple as that. Anyway, I eventually decided that the reason Dr. Stone had told me I was hypomanic was that he wanted to put me on medication instead of actually treating me. So I did the only rational thing I could do in the face of such as insult - I stopped talking to Stone, flew back to New York, and married Paul Simon a week later.

I like the community of acting better than the prison of writing. I like sets.

I've never met a deadline I couldn't miss. I make sure my editors know this.
