You've got to hang on to who you are, what you are. Don't let anyone take it from you.

I had no real education because I was in and out of schools so I decided that I would completely change my look, change my image, change my name and move to New York.

I've played killers, crazies, and really bad people.

Hollywood people want to build you up and make you famous only to knock you off you're the pedestal they built for you.

You put yourself on the line as a performer, and when people reject you, it's a personal rejection.

You have to work in this business on your own terms. Don't sell out for money, fame, or notoriety.

Do not trust the person of spite; though you have loved and tamed them, the snake will bite.
