I had no balance in my life. I was this one person onstage and this person offstage, who really didn't know much about living.

I didn't sleep with anyone till I was 23.

I really appreciate my performing so much better, as I get older. I don't take it for granted anymore. I really relish it and love it.

I was sitting in the classroom trying to look intelligent in case the teacher looked at me.

I get high in the evening sniffing pots of glue.

People who mock rap and say, "I don't like it," they should go and check out Kanye [West] in the studio rapping, or Marshall, Eminem, when he's in the studio. It's a phenomenon. Don't knock it until you've seen it. It may not be your cup of tea, but don't ridicule it.

On Keith Richards: He's like a monkey with arthritis.
