When you first get money, you buy all these things so no one thinks you're mean, and you spread it around. You get a chauffeur and you find yourself thrown around the back of this car and you think, I was happier when I had my own little car! I could drive myself!

Behind every successful person lies a pack of haters.

I've been popular and unpopular, successful and unsuccessful, loved and loathed and I know how meaningless it all is. Therefore I feel free to take whatever risks I want.

The image is one thing, and the human being is another. It's very hard to live up to an image, put it that way.

Just because you like my stuff doesn't mean I owe you anything.

What good are fans? You can't eat applause for breakfast. You can't sleep with it.
