I just want to say, good night, sweet prince, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

The void, the concept of nothingness, is terrifying to most people on the planet. And I get anxiety attacks myself. I know the fear of that void. You have to learn to die before you die. You give up, surrender to the void, to nothingness.

You get older. In the end, you end up accepting everything in your life - suffering, horror, love, loss, hate - all of it.

I've received a lot of compliments. People come right up to me on the street. They recognize me.

I'm big into Eastern concepts. The horror of life, the love of children, the whole phantasmagoria - it's all meaningless. Be still, and see what happens. All of life unfolds perfectly. You have to get beyond consciousness.

Do nothing. Do nothing. Let it happen. Don't try.

'Pretty In Pink' was a huge hit for me.

I'm just dealing with what's happening, with what is. Joy, happiness, good, bad, all those terms are meaningless to me.

My feeling or philosophy is closer to Taoism and Zen Buddhism, 'cause it's the most practical.
