I've sold my records outta shopping carts on the street.

Rock'n'roll has to be destroyed and rebuilt in my name if it's ever gonna accomplish anything.

I hate everybody.

That audience is there for me.

I've sold my records outta shopping carts on the street.

I'd like to see anyone do what I do for one week.

I believe I am the highest power, absolutely.

I've had women who move to the towns I'm living in, just pack up and move there, never even met 'em before, 'cause they heard I lived there.

No one comes to my shows so they'll feel safe and comfortable.

I don't have any influences, any heroes, it's just me.

You are what you are.

I believe you can make forces of good and evil work for you, to get what you want.

I am in control at all times.

Death is a very important part of life.

I don't wanna get old and stagnant and hang around.

Everything I own can fit in two suitcases and a foot locker.

I don't think there will ever be a GG box set.

I don't want people to think I'm a hypocrite.

I don't want people to think that I can't make fun of myself.

My demons and I are not compatible. We never have been and never will be.

My demons, inner strengths and physical battles have guided me through life.

My principal once told me that I was a penny waiting for change. But I suspect that I irritated him probably because I was making more money than he was.

Every show could be the last one.

I usually have more than one thing I'm working on at once - I've been working on three different novels. When I get stuck on one, I hop back and forth.

That's the way I've been educated: I always think about what I missed and the things that you did, you did them, so you don't have to think about them any more.

I gravitate towards gravitas.

I tried to become a family man. I got married, but it didn't work out. After 22 months we got an annulment. Then I married an Italian girl, which resulted in an immediate annulment. I had two annulments by the time I was 23.

All of my activities are so pedestrian. The extreme sport I play is ping pong. And we play it hard. If any of you suckers want to step up to the table, be ready.

It seems to me that in our lifetime we have passed from the wreck of liberal humanism to the beginning of a new recognition of dogma: isn't it rather tremendous?

Men are more moral than they think and far more immoral than they can imagine.

I wouldn't be a good model for any designer's idea of what fashion is.

Charity in the theater begins and ends with those who have a play opening within a week of one's own.

The flag is the embodiment not of sentiment but of history.

I don't know if I expected to be a captain of an All-Star team. It's pretty cool.

Child labor perpetuates poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, population growth, and other social problems.

I get up around 7 a.m. That's very early for a stand-up comic. Then I'll have breakfast with my husband, the artist Al Ridenour, take my three dogs for a walk and commence with my work.

I have never dated. I have no experience. It's terrible, and I'm scared to death of it, too, at the same time.

Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.

You've done it in the simulator so many times, you don't have a real sense of being excited when the flight is going on. You're excited before, but as soon as the liftoff occurs, you are busy doing what you have to do.

Creating means living.

I've heard from other artists that people are a little bit more reserved in Northern Europe, which comes across at concerts, where the audience may be quieter. So this means less hecklers, but maybe it also means that people may not be as open about how they felt. I'm not so sure this is especially true of Denmark, but it's what I've heard.

If you're only a fan of the old music, that music's gonna wind up sounding even older.

Reading is a heady thing. You can be into the action of someone's thoughts and take a whole trip down someone's ruminations while seconds tick by in the world that they're in, but you can't really do that in film.

All girls hit that phase where they like the bad boy. I grew out of that really young and I have a wonderful guy in my life who's not a bad boy at all. I like the satiric, consistent nice guy.

If you don't take care of yourself, the undertaker will overtake that responsibility for you.

We had a pretty good lead, so why push it.
