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

The only parts I like out of any of those women books is the dirty parts. But I don't think their dirty parts are any good, really.

Those who have suffered understand suffering and therefore extend their hand.

The way our big cities change sucks. The beauty of cities was that they were edgy, sometimes even a little dangerous. Artists, poets, and activists could come and unify and create different kinds of scenes. Not just fashion scenes, scenes that were politically active. Big cities are getting so high-end oriented, business corporate fashion, fashion not in an artistic sense but in a corporate sense. For me that edgy beauty of cities is lost, wherever you go.

I understood that in this small space of time we had mutually surrendered our loneliness and replaced it with trust.

I think it's really great that people share their work [on Myspace] and no one is paying for it. I think that's a very healthy thing and it's not a corporate thing.

People need space to air out their thoughts, to have a sense of themselves - unfettered by anything.
