There have been times when I've written something and it goes out and it comes back in a letter from some kid as to what they think about it and I've taken their analysis to heart so much that I have taken up his thing. Writing what my audience is telling me to write.

Elvis is English, and climbs the hills. Can't tell the bullshit from the lies.

I'm not at ease with the word "love."

A lot of people provide me with quotes. They suggest all kinds of things to say and I do, really, because I'm not very hip at all.

I felt I really wanted to back off from music completely and just work within the visual arts in some way. I started painting quite passionately at that time.

I'm an instant star. Just add water and stir.

I don't live for the stage. I don't live for an audience.
