I'm not a god or the God, but we're all God and we're all potentially divine, and potentially evil.

I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything. I've always been a freak. So I've been a freak all my life. I'm one of those people.

I don't appreciate worship of dead Sid Vicious or of dead James Dean or of dead John Wayne. Making Sid Vicious a hero, it's garbage to me. I worship the people who survive.
