I was anti-intellectual to the nth. Basically I liked to dance and paint, and that was about it.

People were very protective of me. Overly so. I was in the industry for a long time before I had any idea of what drugs people were doing.

Musically, I don't think I'd ever dry up. I trust my musical invention.

The thing that started me painting originally was seeing Bambi when I was about nine. I was incredibly disturbed by the forest fire that killed Bambi's mother, and that distress gave me the impulse to create something, as a way of dealing with it.

Elusive dreams and vague desires fanned to fiery needs by deadly deeds of falling empires.

I always thought the women of song don't get along, and I don't know why that is.

I find a lot of poetry to be narcissistic.
