Within the perfect situation, not everything is perfect.

You can't rely on anything. At the end of the day, all you have is yourself.

Before a show, you might have aches or pains, or it's a bad rainy day, or it's too humid. We all complain about stuff. But... how do I put this poetically? Once it's the roar of the crowd and the smell of the greasepaint, forget it. Once the adrenaline kicks in and your chest expands, you forget about all that.

If you're lucky, you don't think in a straight line.

There is not a single person alive who could keep a straight face and say "Oh yeah it's healthy, the reason I use drugs and alcohol and booze is because it's healthy!"

Television and comic books are, and continue to be, probably the biggest influence in my life. It's the biggest influence on everybody's life.

The makeup is simply an extension of the personality and colors, clothing, makeup all express something.
