There have to be reasons that you get up in the morning and you want to live. Why do you want to live? What's the point? What inspires you? What do you love about the future?

I collect old portraits. They're all just interesting pictures of people, and you just kind of wonder who they were and what they were.

I'm an advocate of music in schools. It's important to me that music is in as many schools as possible across this country and across the world.

Billy Friedkin came to me before we were filming [The Exorcist] and said ,if you do not do all of this film, the film will be a joke.It's why they stripped the makeup down to the bare minimum, a piece on my chin, piece across my mouth that disfigured my mouth. You have scars here. Take away my eyebrows. It was my real hair. Shampoo was put in it that dried.
