The nights I don't sleep it's because there's a higher calling telling me to stand guard.

I believe in detox. I think detox is smart. You've got a guy who's in an opiate cycle or a dope cycle or something, and he can't get out of it. You shut him down long enough so at least his body can start working for itself again.

You never have to look over your shoulder when you tell the truth. You never have to remember the details, because they are what they are. And you don't have to make sure your story matches everyone else's.

I'm not in any way religious. I don't go to church, but I consider myself spiritual.

Fame is empowering. My mistake was that I thought I would instinctively know how to handle it. But there's no manual, no training course.

The truth is for suckers, Johnny Boy!

I've always been a little skittish about death. On certain days I'm okay with it. On other days it's like, "Really? I have to? No, man, not me."
