I want a woman who can arouse my intellect as well as my loins.

I'm in a position that allows me to do what I want to do, and I do it.

I'd like to produce, direct, write, score, and star in a film in exactly the way Chaplin did. I'll do that before I'm thirty.

When I go back to the stage, I want to be able to do everything. I want to be able to do music and comedy and all that stuff and have a show like nobody ever had before.

You might have seen a housefly, maybe even a superfly, but I bet you ain't never seen a donkey fly! Ha, ha!

You can't let the good things people say make you feel too good, because you're going to let the bad things make you feel bad.

I'm the artist when I'm doing music that I am when I'm acting. I'm everything.
