I try to give the media as many confusing images as I can to retain my freedom. What's real is for my children and the people I live with.

I do my best work when I am in pain and turmoil.

I have been through various fitness regimes. I used to run about five miles a day and I did aerobics for a while.

Our politicians, they all seemed like game show hosts to me.

I exist in a state of almost perpetual hysteria.

Great music as much about the space in between the notes as it is about the notes themselves.

I was famous overnight. I went from nowhere to being really big.
