I think you can be defiant and rebellious and still be strong and positive.

I am my own experiment. I am my own work of art.

There are any number of things that would be detrimental to your career. Everyone's really afraid.

What I find really astonishing is how quiet everybody is in my industry. I mean, nobody in the entertainment business except for maybe a handful of people ever speak out about what's going on. Nobody takes a political stance or expresses an opinion.

People have this idea that if you're sexual and beautiful and provocative, then there's nothing else you could possibly offer.

I used to believe in the pretty pictures that were all around me, but now I know for sure that I was stupid.

I always felt like I was a freak when I was growing up and that there was something wrong with me because I couldn't fit in anywhere.
