I'm a survivor, at least that's what everyone tells me.

When you're dying and your life is flashing before your eyes, you're gonna be thinking about the great things that you did, the horrible things that you did and the emotional impact that someone had on you and that you had on somebody else. Those are the things that are relevant. To have some sort of emotional impact that transcends your time, that's great. As long as you don't mess it up by being undignified when you're old.

But I always wound up being the damn John, when I wanted to be the Paul.

I'm so proud of myself. I worked with anger, with the darkest things in the world.

In rock 'n' roll it's really about being as vulnerable as possible and giving them what they want. But onstage it's about pausing, about internal life, it's about internal triggers - that's one of the reasons I'm really challenged to do a play.

Unless there are pictures, I don't admit to anything.

A good stylist knows that and is not going to push you to wear something that you're not comfortable with.
