Personal quotes
On music: "Music is real; it's something you can
touch and feel. It moves you - the bass literally shakes
you and rocks you from the inside. Music makes your
soul feel amazing while you're performing it. It's not
air, it's not wind, it's not anything like that. It's
solid. It's thick. It's like summertime in New York."
On being
world-weary: "I never had innocence."
On modeling:
"It was like, I wanted to go swimming in the ocean,
but I was jumping up and down in a puddle."
"Bijou
Phillips- you never knew what the f**k she would say
or do next. There is no line between her unconscious
and her articulation of it and her behavior. She is
a genuine psychopath. I say that with affection and
admiration, because she's also incredibly smart and
talented, so she knows how to amuse and how to get and
hold attention. If she were just a psychopath, you wouldn't
want to use her; you'd just be bored. But she is always
amusing and interesting, and if one thing isn't working
she has a good sense of it, and she just starts on something
else." - James Toback
