Writing is like going to bed with a beautiful woman and afterwards she gets up, goes to her purse and gives me a handful of money.

If I stop writing I am dead. And that's the only way I'll stop: dead.

people see so many movies that when they finally see one not so bad as the others, they think it's great. an Academy Award means that you don't stink quite as much as your cousin.

My body gnaws at me from one side and my spirit gnaws at me from the other.

It is possible to be truly mad and to still exist upon scraps of life.

Sexual intercourse is kicking death in the ass while singing.

To do a dull thing with style-now that's what I call art.
