I knew Jimmy Dean. He tested for 'Battle Cry'. Paul Newman tested for 'Battle Cry'. I did nine tests to finally get that role.

Rock Hudson wasn't my type. He's a great guy and had a great sense of humor.

I'd work for John Waters again, because he's so off the wall.

I learned denial from my mother. I just never confronted things and if anybody did, I just would go crazy.

I don't care whether people like me or dislike me. I'm not on earth to win a popularity contest. I'm here to be the best human being I possibly can be.

The people that really were important, that mattered, had a great foundation. I had no training. I had to learn while doing, and it was really difficult.

All the things that happen to people in the industry today, the actors, what they have to put up with, all the people wanting to know every single moment of their lives - I think it's really sad.
