Yoga has stopped me from destroying my joints after running. It slows me down.

I met this homeless man who had never owned a shirt in his life. He had taken his pants and worn them as a shirt and I thought it was so creative. He was liberated from the conventions of fashion.

I wear everything from hip-hop baggy pants to beautiful Armani dresses. I also like to mix vintage clothing with designer pieces.

I'm going to Columbia University but I'm trying to keep that low-profile because I don't want weird people following me there. I want the experience of normal college life.

Make yourself useful, not just on a day to day basis, but as a lifetime thing.

I like analyzing human behavior. It's complex. That's what keeps me going.

I tend to gravitate toward the more powerful roles. As opposed to the doe-eyed girl who bats her eyelashes and runs around in towels, you now what I mean? Because that kind of makes me want to vomit.

My regular school didn't know what to do with me!

I am a big fan of horror movies but I had never thought that I had wanted to act in one because I don't think that actors get to do much in them. They're usually just reacting.

I think that ultimately I just have to be myself. You know, I don't do anything that outlandish anyway.

I always feel like a goofy little kid.

Form follows emotion

When I write, I do not like using ten dollar words. I like the fifty-centers. Everybody has fifty-cents, even those that are too proud to admit it.

Your business is a part of yourself. Should it be? Who knows, but it sure feels that way. You can never really leave it.

I saw a headshot with the name 'Emilio Sheen' printed under it and it looked terrible.

Novels are a kind of experiment in selfhood, for the reader as well as for the author.

It took me a long time to reach the decision to retire, actually, from the Art Ensemble.

I hardly ever listen to any of our old stuff now. Once the songs have been recorded and put on to vinyl they become someone else's entertainment, not mine.

To be alone means that you avoid bad company. But to have a true friend is better than being alone.

I believe in the synergy and sharing platforms.

Of all the branches of men in the forces there is none which shows more devotion and faces grimmer perils than the submariners.
