I have a temper, but I wouldn't call me abusive.

As Peter Bogdanovich would say of Paper Moon: Ryan's wonderful in it, and he sat there and watched the kid steal the picture.

Paper Moon didn't bring me love.

Things with my dad were pretty good until I won an Academy Award. He was really loving to me until I got more attention than he did. Then he hated me.

I've overcome neglect and deprivation, abandonment and abuse.

I was punished for blowing the whistle on my father's lifestyle.

Certain struggles never end.
