Some people try and tell you what the songs are about and it bores me to death.

Predictability is the cousin of death: I don't necessarily want people to see me coming. You know?

You should see some of the things people tweet me. There have been death wishes on my Twitter timeline.

I've had various people close to me die, and I don't necessarily find the idea of death purely depressing.

There are certain people that are marked for death. I have my little list of those that treated me unfairly.

People assume that death hanging over my head would allow me to put things into perspective, but that's not how it works.

There are a few images in 'Exorcist 3' that scared me - people crawling on ceilings, etc. - but nothing beats the original. Even the book scared me to death.

In Hollywood, you can live alongside very famous but still incredibly boring people. I've never wanted to be immortal. Even if nobody remembers me after my death, it's still okay with me.

The stroke has given me another way to serve people. It lets me feel more deeply the pain of others; to help them know by example that ultimately, whatever happens, no harm can come. 'Death is perfectly safe,' I like to say.

In the days when I used to tweet, I would encounter comments wishing death upon me. There were people who claimed they were sticking pins in my effigy because they couldn't stand me. There's some seriously disturbed people out there.
