People want to be famous, they want to be loved, they want to be accepted. They want to push aside their past and the things that have been embarrassing to them.

From the time I was a kid, I'd never joined groups. I hated high school groups. I hung out with hippies, musical people. I hung out with whomever I found compelling and interesting and smart. And I continued to do that throughout my life.

The real terrorist threats are George W. Bush and his band of brown-shirted thugs.

The most important, overriding arc of my career has been that I would never be self-deprecating.

I believe in people living their lives and having privacy.

Growing up in the '60s and the '70s, things certainly seemed more simplistic and easier to digest.

I think Bush is amateurish and self-serving, and frankly, it's disgusting.
