Quote
1 [re Los Angeles] I feel like everyone here is so creative. They think up a project, and the next thing you know, they’re doing it.
2 [re childhood days with friend Claire Danes] Growing up in downtown New York City in the ’80s, we were ensconced in art and progressive thinking,Our parents all experimented with raising us in a fairly loose, unorthodox way. A huge emphasis was placed on creativity, and our artistic efforts were never dismissed as childish. There was a sense that we – kids and grown-ups – all had the potential to make something of value. Our drawings were not simply destined for the refrigerator. We never felt patronized.
3 [re other child stars] I was never as famous as all these kids. There was no social media. We weren’t celebrity-obsessed as a culture. I feel like these kids are under a crazy microscope; they’re basically brands. And they eventually implode and act out. They need a break, and they’re not getting one.
4 I love Beyoncé Knowles, I do. But I was walking down the street and saw this huge billboard for the documentary, she made about herself called, Beyoncé: Life Is But a Dream (2013). Underneath the billboard is this homeless guy, then there’s me with $2 in my bank account, and I’m thinking, Life is but a dream? I mean, I love you, B, but really?
5 [re her childhood growing up in and around the Chelsea Hotel] We lived in a classless society. We’d spend a summer at Gore Vidal’s house in Italy, but we were on and off welfare…
