When I see someone who is starved, they don't look alert. They don't have boundless energy. If you're too skinny, it looks like you're near death.
There's always somebody older, richer, more desperate than you.
I am the one who got myself fat, who did all the eating. So I had to take full responsibility for it.
I always had really long swimmer's arms. The last to totally go is always my thighs and butt, but my old body is there somewhere.
I don't like psychiatry. I don't believe it works. I believe psychiatrists are neurotic or psychotic, for the most part.
I'm happy when I'm juggling, but I feel like I've gone from, like, 3 balls to 10 bowling balls. But, that's a good problem. I don't really have a complaint about that.
I don't believe you have to have eating disorders and mental illness to screw up.
I developed a nutty attitude where I'd think, If some guy really loves me he doesn't care if I'm fat. I'd come up with all these stupid reasons why it would be OK to be fat.
When push comes to shove, it ain't the science that's going to lift you up-it's the belief, the spiritual side of life, that's going to lift you up, no matter what religion you are.
I binge when I'm happy. When everything is going really well, every day is like I'm at a birthday party.
I sort of feel sorry for the next man who gets me. I may just kill him with passion. He'd better be strong and have a good heart!
For some reason I am one of those people who act like they were born and raised during the Depression.
One time, I brought Prince to the set. He's a friend of mine, and he asked to come. Everyone wanted to meet him, but he's a little shy.
I always feel like there is some dude out there with money that I could fall back on if I needed to.
