If I think about it too much, I can't get dressed.

Memories are like mercury. Every time you sort of try to get near them, they slip out of your hand like a bar of soap.

In fashion, there are so many gangs, if you identify too much with one, you get caught - I would lose my freedom.

I'm always reading many books at a time. It might be quite unorthodox, but what I do is, since I'm always surrounded with books, I'll read a page of physics, and then I'll read a chapter of a novel that I really love, and then I'll say, "Oh well, what does that mixture do in my head?" I adore reference books. I love encyclopedias. I also like just going back to original texts, because a lot of these self-help books today.

People always assume I don't need to work for money, but my divorce settlement was not as much as it's always reported to be.

I practice stoic philosophy. As a human being, you may have emotions, but these don't need to affect your soul. The two are not one.

I don't dress for effect, and I think that it never works out when someone does.
