You want to know if we're animals? When I'm on stage with the volume rippling my body like a glass of water and thousands of people are generating heat in my direction, there's no time for thought. My basement facilities take over completely. Sure it's animal. People might like to talk about art, but look where art is, in the gutter.

I always wanted to be an outrage to public decency and a threat to women. And this is one of the few occupations where you're not only allowed that, but you're encouraged.

Give me a glazed doughnut, and a bottle of anything... to go!

I'm not conceited. Conceit is a fault and I have no faults.

You stick your head above the crowd and attract attention and sometimes somebody will throw a rock at you. That's the territory. You buy the land, you get the Indians.

I take my personal upkeep real seriously; my sense of organization and attention to detail; my memory; my business - I love the business.

I grew up on radio, not TV.
