I know I have a fairly strong feminine side. I find myself really distanced from male behavior.
I like design, I like details, to me it is just another form of self-expression.
I don't remember my life before I had children.
I find it hard to pre-plan every element of everything I do. It's not my thing.
You know, I'm really not interested in someone telling me that something's good or bad.
I think I was born at a time when an American male had so many advantages and opportunities that weren't available to men before or after, just a very brief period.
And if you say a word about this over the radio, the next wings you see will belong to the flies buzzing over your rotting corpse.
The ghosts you chase you never catch.
I don't really go through a process, it goes through me.
I don't need to be liked.
It seems whenever I've had a method or what I perceived to be an intellectual groundwork of some sort - a kind of game plan - it's always been the most morbid failure.
I don't mind what I play, really.
My father was an exceptionally strong influence on me.
I've permitted myself to learn and to fail with some regularity. And that is probably the one thing I was given, and that I'm still grateful for.
