When my brother, Todd [Fisher], was born my father was already with Elizabeth [Taylor]. I was 19 or 20 when I first spent a block of time with him.

A lot of the time, I'm just smart enough to be unhappy.

Sid said that drugs weren't the problem, life was the problem. Drugs were the solution.

My extroversion is a way of managing my introversion.

I had to shoot shotguns for The Blues Brothers. But I don't like that stuff. Too butch for me.

My father was a joyous, joyous spirit, he really was. He was a hedonist, that was just - he enjoyed life, thrust up to the elbows with it. He was a terrible father. I don't know that he was parented that well.

I think of my body as a side effect of my mind.
