I was like one of the boys in school who flap their legs frantically under the desk. I always had this weird feeling between my legs and I had no idea what it was. I didn't know girls masturbated. I never touched myself or anything.

I think I'm constantly in a state of adjustment.

I knew if I lived long enough I would be poet laureate of something.

I'm an intuitive musician. I have no real technical skills. I can only play six chords on the guitar.

I never had any dates. I never really had any boyfriends. I was the girl who did the guys' homework. I was really crazy about guys but I was always like one of the boys. The guys I always fell in love with were completely inaccessible.

The whole process of working with Steven [Sebring] and being filmed by him helped me psychologically to get my feet back on the ground.

I think masturbating is a really important function in art. People don't like to hear that kind of stuff, but it's true.
