I am not reinventing myself. I am going through the layers and revealing myself. I am on a journey, an adventure that's constantly changing shape.

I think most children who are adopted ultimately want to meet their biological parents and often do. I think that is an important journey for children who are adopted to go on.

I wanted to be famous, I wanted everybody to love me. I wanted to be a star. I worked really hard, and my dream came true.

I want to be like Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, and John Lennon... but I want to stay alive.

I'm very grateful that I had work to do. I may have thrown myself off a building.

I get strength from my art - all the paintings I own are powerful.

Music makes the people come together.
