Being an artist doesn't mean that you're a good artist. That was the bargain I first made with myself: I'd say, I'm an artist, but I'm not really very good.
The first few years in L.A. were really tough and scary, but I had to figure things out for myself.
I have the same attitude with work - I like to go to work, I like to work really hard I, like to give everything my all, I like to try things that are new, you know.
I had lived with abuse for many years, but the worst abuse has been at my own hands and the appalling situations I have tolerated.
I've always really been into science, and in the last five years I've gotten into theoretical physics and the origins of the universe.
I'm a good scholar when it comes to reading but a blotting kind of writer when you give me a pen.
It is a fine game to play - the game of politics - and it is well worth waiting for a good hand before really plunging.
I like the idea of being a working writer, not of saying that it's going to take me 30 years to write my magnum opus.
I'm very happy with the way I write. I think I do it good. But I've never really considered myself a writer.
