Quote: "(His advice to young stars) "Do not believe your own publicity․ Sussing out who your real friends are is full-time work․ Every scum bag, every drug dealer, every chicken hawk wants a piece of you․""
Quote: "(On his drug addiction) "It's a tough one to beat․ It takes your soul․ It's your lover․ It's your food․ I looked, like, crappy, but I was doing work just to get money to pay for it․ I've been lucky․ There's a reason I’m here on this planet․ I'm never going to hit 'teen idol' again and I don’t want to․ I'd rather be behind the scenes․""
