I didn't waste my time on things I didn't love.

The film [Dream of Life] doesn't hide anything, except maybe moments of sorrow or darkness that belonged to me.

No, my work does not reflect my sexual preferences, it reflects the fact that I feel total freedom as an artist.

I think that there is an air of experience and aesthetic sophistication that weaves in with the amateur aspects of the film [Dream of Life]; it gives the film a certain elegance.

I don't wanna be equal with anybody. I wanna be above equal. I don't think most people are equal to me. I'd like to communicate with everybody; I'd like to do something universal, I'd like to have the hit record of the world. But that's not the same as being equal.

My style of performance poetry came from the beatniks, Allen Ginsberg.

I was quite an insomniac. I rarely slept as a child. Having God to talk to at night was nice.
