I'm all sentimental. I've probably been ruined by romantic movies, but I really do believe in love. I've experienced it, I've had it, so I know it's real.

You have to take the chance to bomb and disappoint audiences.

I do enjoy and feel compelled to talk about things that are taboo. One, because I think I'm a troublemaker inside, if someone says, "Don't say that," it's all I want to say. And also, something I learned in therapy ... which is darkness can't exist in the light, and then that made me think of something that Mr. Rogers said, which is, "If it's mentionable, it's manageable."

I know how to write. So I am not totally at the mercy of filmmakers, but it's not a bad point.

Strippers should be role-models for little girls. If only for the fact that they wax their assholes.

I do love poop. I can't help it. The heart wants what it wants. I enjoy being clever and pithy and political, but nothing's going to get me like dumb stuff.

We need to stop telling girls they can be anything they want when they grow up. Because it would have never occurred to them that they couldn't.
