Living a simpler life has turned out to be one of the keys to being more awake and healthy.

Finding some quiet time in your life, I think, is hugely important.

I thought my book was done, then we went to Hawaii and the whole last chapter happened.

I use nothing but homeopathic remedies, for my girls as well.

Manhattan, though, was an entirely different ballgame in a whole different kind of world, with a man who was brilliant and at the same time terribly charismatic.

I was taken by the romanticism of being thought of as an adult and living in a world that was completely new to me. I fell in love with acting then.

You have to have a little faith in people.

I think that growth and spiritual awareness come in slow increments. Sometimes you don't know it's happening.

The 'Hemingway curse' was such a huge, awful thing for me to have to deal with. . . . The reality is, because there are genetic tendencies toward mental illness, you need to be aware of them.

Live in your dream. Refuse to wake up until it is completely over. Then dream again.

I once worked as a salesman and was very independent. I took orders from no one.

I tend to gravitate to the darkest or most obscure part of any venue in an effort to have my own space to experience the music on my own, free from unwanted conversations and other distractions.

Frankly speaking, I like women. In my heart, I am still teenager. And I am very open and I don't want to hide this.

A lone walker is both present and detached, more than an audience but less than a participant. Walking assuages or legitimizes this alienation.

That was an important thing to learn - the more preparation you do the more a subject will respect you. But also, the more you'll think about what the real story is.
