I've never made money from films.

All those reports that I sleep in my closet. I don’t know how people get that. People are so obsessed with what you do at home.

Dream big while you sleep, and even bigger when you're awake.

Be the person you want to be, not the person you have to be

Don't ever be scared to dream because everything is possible, no matter how bizarre. I was and still am a dreamer and that's what made me become the person I am today

Approval isn’t necessary. It’s nice when you get it, but it’s not going to stop us from being who we are. I mean, if I’d have listened to approval, I’d never have made it one day onstage. But to be criticized, if there’s validity, as upset as you are, you can learn from it.

I think that to explore the uncomfortable and the politically incorrect is the job of the artist.
