I have photographs taken of me at the time I was addicted, and thought I looked good. I see them today and realize my eyes were dead.
I don't like psychiatry. I don't believe it works. I believe psychiatrists are neurotic or psychotic, for the most part.
I've known Prince for many years - I worked on the "Raspberry Beret" video - and Kirstie [Alley] and I used to fight about him. He once sent a card [saying] he had penned a song about me, called "Palomino Pleasure Ride. " I remember bringing this card to work one time and showing Kirstie and saying: "See? Now who's the better friend?" It was so ridiculous.

There's a lot more to life than how fat or thin you are.
I probably spend more time with my kids than the average stay-at-home mother.
