I was real religious when I was young. I wanted to be a missionary.

I believe we all have a unique journey, whether its a journey of pure energy, if there's any intelligence within the journey. But I think each of us have our own way of dissipating or entering a new field.

I'm very comfortable with being a female now but when I was a little kid I only wanted to be a boy. I didn't want to be a girl. I didn't feel like a man inside... being a boy was just cooler.

I like energy. I like to feel it cracklin', I like sexual energy in a room, and I like tension.

Often the simplest song is the hardest to write.

I hated the makeup. I hated all that pancake makeup. I didn't really like dressing for parts.

The film [Dream of Life] is the way it is because it was the rhythm of my life, and also because the director and the editor are both gifted and both fine human beings.
