I love the old movies from my past, when I was growing up. I just have a special place in my heart for them. They kind of feel like comfort food to me, so watching them is just cozy and warm.

Since I always go to work as Elvira, maybe a giant version of a cat. A black cat. I love cats and I think Elvira would look really good sitting on one.

If I retire doing the character, I don't think the character has to retire. There will still be caricatures of Elvira. You know, Dracula still works, and he's dead.

Horror, for me, has to involve some sort of fantasy. Horror is something that is in your dreams or your nightmares.

When I was into The Beatles, I cut my hair into a Beatle haircut, which looked so ridiculously stupid with my little cat-eye glasses that I wore.

Actually, when I was little I even dreamed about riding a black cat.

If ever there was a holiday that deserves to be commercialized, it's Halloween. We haven't taken it away from kids. We've just expanded it so that the kid in adults can enjoy it, too.

I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.

I've probably said a million times in my life something about, "All those people are just lemmings. They'd follow each other off a cliff." Well, no such thing.

I ended up spending some time with Jimi Hendrix and hanging out with him, and that was beyond awesome.

Luckily, it's one of my favorite movies [ Night Of The Living Dead]. I never get tired of watching it.

If you love and care enough, you will give a lot, you will forgive a lot.

Life is the song you dance to when reality sings.

oh what can i do life is beautiful but you don't have a clue.

Nothing good ever happens by itself - it is achieved through striving, though this sometimes bears a high price.

If we didn't have Nico [Rosberg] and Lewis [Hamilton] in those cars - there's one or two guys down the field who in those cars would have delivered the same.

Forgiveness doesn't mean forget what happened. If something is serious and it is necessary to take counter-measures, you have to take counter-measures.

Hope and fear are both phantoms that arise from thinking of the self. When we don't see the self as self, what do we have to fear?

Let knowledge be guessed by the sign of equality to all beings.

Wars of aggression are the most barbarous of all human endeavors and are, more often than not, the instruments of insane tyrants who hear voices.

I remember Zachary Quinto were just about to go and do So Notorious on VH1, and I was super unemployed, and I think we spent a lot of time talking about how we weren't particularly happy.
