box cross odd saying sticking terrible
I thought it was very odd that I had a cross and that I was sticking it in a box saying terrible language. But I have to say that I did not understand.
amish animals
The Amish do many other things that are good. Let them do that. Let the animals go.
ignore outlook
To ignore one's spiritual self is unsettling, to say the least. That's a very profound outlook on it.
asked call possible time
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.
gifts people pets realize
It's difficult to understand why people don't realize that pets are gifts to mankind.
children equal matter remember
What we have to remember is that children matter as much as adults, but they aren't equal with adults
planned retire
I had planned to retire when I was 13, ... I had wanted to be a veterinarian.
authority comfort figures loving modern parents relationship remote source warm
Modern parents want a warm and loving relationship with their children, and to be a source of encouragement, comfort and support. We want to be friends without children, not remote or frightening authority figures as our own parents may have been.
stop
They were very persistent. They didn't stop writing or calling.
children character winning
Look what they did to MaCauley Culkin. The poor child. I know because I've been there. But I could say after living my life, truth will always win out. And no one can take my character away from me anymore.
children animal elderly
I have done, I hope to say I've done things to help make a difference while I'm on this earth. Are animal issues most important to me? Absolutely. I have an affinity with them, but I also care about children and the elderly and always say that the rest of everybody else can fend for themselves because we're in a age where we can. And we're all able to do so.
confusing trying down-and
While you're in the moment of anything that's confusing in your life, you're in the moment, and you have to figure it out. You can go up or down. And I just kept working on the higher road, and trying. I got very involved with medication.
powerful mean people
I was lucky. I had some really good people that were just here there and wherever who would come into my life that I felt would answer questions. I mean, I had some very powerful questions myself for what this earth was all about.
children thinking would-be
I think that if I'd not made the movie, I might be a veterinarian in Connecticut. I would probably be married with some children. That's probably the way it would be. But because of the film [the Exorcist], I don't have a normal life by somebody else's standards.
