Before I became famous I had a very full life, and that gave me a lot to pick from. I always use everything. It always comes in handy. Working with animals... Well, I just enjoyed that. That was the most peaceful time.

I have a wig for when I go outside among the regular folks, so they don't feel uncomfortable because I have a Day-Glo color somewhere in my hair.

My mother said I was a little odd as a kid. I was alone a lot, but I didn't feel alone.

There have been great things that happened to me.

I do have a lot of difficulty figuring out what I want to be working on, but what's the alternative? To be one of those people who has a million things they want to do, and then never does any of them? And then where will you be?

Goonies are good enough, good enough for me

Men and women are different. I don't think men grow a brain until 26 or even 30. Girls mature a lot quicker.
