I'm just a negative person, a deeply negative person. I see the worst aspects of everything.

At least I hate myself as much as I hate anybody else.

Killing yourself is a major commitment, it takes a kind of courage. Most people just lead lives of cowardly desperation. It's kinda half suicide where you just dull yourself with substances.

When I come up against the real world, I just vacillate.

I knew I was weird by the time I was four. I knew I wasn't like other boys. I knew I was more fearful. I didn't like the rough and tumble most boys were into. I knew I was a sissy.

I was one of those little girls who practiced signing autographs since I was 5 years old.

Drawing is the root of everything.
