He, who loves praise, loves temptation.

A great man is made so for others.

I was studying acting in New York, and wasn't being hired by anyone to do anything other than to work in an Oriental rug warehouse.

I was an artistic dilettante for a while, in photography and collage and the visual arts.

The greatest of all disorders is to think we are whole and need no help.

How it shaped my perception is this: I have become so indelibly identified as a character in pop culture that it has forced me to go deeply within myself to get a very very rock solid sense, to myself, of who I am.

He, who loves praise, loves temptation.
