I've always believed there is a better place somewhere. I feel like I'm E.T. and I'm just passing through.

I was the overweight kid who didn't have a boyfriend. I listened to other people say, 'You're ugly, you're fat, you're stupid,' and I believed it.

I was a single mother, and my boys were babies. I sold my body for food, money, and Pampers.

Being Prince's sister might get me in the door, but it is my own talent that keeps me on the stage.

I couldn't love a movie much more than 'Dazed and Confused.' I would argue that 'Dazed and Confused: The Series' would have been very much like 'Freaks and Geeks.' And that died a painful death because it was too good.

It is necessary to have wished for death in order to know how good it is to live.

I think it's almost impossible to edit something to death. I think you can make things better almost indefinitely.

It is impossible that anything so natural, so necessary, and so universal as death, should ever have been designed by providence as an evil to mankind.
