I've lived through what seems to most - and myself - many lives.

Kids shouldn't see all the violence they do these days. But the industry just doesn't care.

When I was 13 I asked my mother if it was possible for this to end - I'd had enough of it. And that was right about the time that we got a call for "The Exorcist" interview.

One of the reasons I don't have kids is because I think people would have been very unfair to them. Think of it. You're still asking me questions about The Exorcist.

It's difficult to understand why people don't realize that pets are gifts to mankind.

The Exorcist has been a very interesting cross to bear.

I was so sad from losing two of my dogs and my mother. I had this vision of all these animals sitting behind bars. They had no control and were scared. That's why I got into fostering and adopting animals out.

If I had children, I would be very selfish. I wouldn't be out doing things. But by not having kids, it makes me freer to travel the world and talk about things I feel are important.

To ignore one's spiritual self is unsettling, to say the least. That's a very profound outlook on it.

The animals are right here, right in front of us. And how we treat these companions is a test.

People always joke that "dog" spells "god" backwards. They should consider that it might be the higher power coming down to see just how well they do, what kind of people they are. The animals are right here, right in front of us. And how we treat these companions is a test.

Of all the projects I've worked on, I've never worked with another director like Billy Friedkin. I think he's a genius.

There was a golden retriever who saved countless lives on September 11 by going back in to find people. His companion was in a wheelchair. He got him out and kept going back in to save others.

It's a tough world out there and all the guys are fighting hard and the competition is really tough.

It's a pretty frantic world that we live in.

I think one of the biggest scams in law enforcement is the monitor.

Leaving southern Sudan as a child was terrifying. It was 1985, and my family and I were trying to escape to Khartoum, the capital in the North, to safety.

I don't know why I love cherries and I love pickles. I eat about two or three Claussen pickles a day. Those are just things I snack on.

Complaining is mouth farting. And like any farting I dont mind hearing my own but I dont want to hear anyone elses.

I support peace.

I never saw myself as a singer; I never really thought I had the voice for it.

Disneyland is often called a magic kingdom because it combines fantasy and history adventure and learning together with every variety of recreation and fun designed to appeal to everyone.

If I see an ending, I can work backward.

What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.

I have a beautiful, young wife who sings and dances, so there's a lot of duetting going on at my house.

Football is a fertility festival. Eleven sperm trying to get into the egg. I feel sorry for the goalkeeper.

It's odd to meet a rather elderly man who says, 'I've been reading you all my life.' It makes you feel a slight chill.

Tension without cosmic pulsation to animate it is the transition to nothingness.

In boxing, it's one fight, so it's easier to build up rivalries, but everyone's got huge respect for each other.

Just because your voice reaches halfway around the world doesn't mean you are wiser than when it reached only to the end of the bar.

I regret not death. I am going to meet my friends in another world.

When you are writing a song for something else, if you are doing something for money, I always think that's bad luck.

I think I intimidate hecklers because I weigh more than most of them.

For better or worse, poetry is my life.

In the late 1940s, there weren't any pop stars, and TV didn't exist.

I thought maybe I'd be a farmer. That was another silly notion. I think I'd last about five minutes, being a farmer.

I've definitely had my share of calls where I just laugh. Someone came to me once and wanted to do a signature Hawk cologne. I was like, 'Of what? Sweaty pads? Am I wringing out my pads into a little perfume bottle?'
