I've been up, down, trying to get the feeling again. All around, trying to get the feeling again. The one that makes me shiver, made my knees start to quiver.

Here's proof that if you live long enough, anything is possible.

Sneakers are not my thing.

Everything you say and do is having an impact on others.

Maybe one of the only things I do well: I cook like a maniac! I would be a chef if I weren't an actor.

I'm a very independent person, I love being alone, writing and doing music and stuff.

My aunt could never understand how writing could be a full-time job. She'd keep asking when I'd get a real job!.

You cannot explain me with "isms." They are very bad for an artist. What one must believe in is color.

I know every film is different. Every filmmaker is different and works differently.

I died from a mineral and plant became, Died from the plant, took a sentient frame; Died from the beast, donned a human dress - When by my dying did I ever grow less.

I was raised in the church by my grandmother who made sure we went to Sunday School, read the Bible and went to church every Sunday. Every night we read Bible stories before we went to bed.
