The awesome thing about being an artist? You can't be fired from your own mind.

I don't mind being disliked - I will be the one to step up and say what needs to be said if it helps one woman who comes after me.

It's funny, honestly, by rights, with a lot of the stuff that's happened to me I should be running down the street with my hair on fire, but instead I want to shape things, and I want to shake things up. There's nothing wrong with being an agitator.

It's my job to spread deviance to the American youth.

The people that are the invisible ones, the marginalized, the quote-unquote weirdos, the people that get things thrown at them, the people that get harassed every day just for existing . . . I just still strongly align with them.

It's interesting when you go out into the world and see which of your roles have affected people.

I live a very international life, but when I come back to Hollywood, a town I love in a lot of ways, I have to wonder, "What decade are you in? Like, seriously, what decade? It's not this one."
