We buy the tabloids to witness someone else's life go wrong, so we can feel a bit better about our own troubles.

I live in one of Judy Garland's houses. As a fan, I never much liked Judy Garland, but living here, I feel like I have come to know her. People have given me a few of her possessions, and my neighbors have told me things that I wish I didn't know.

From Taylor Negron

Everybody knows if you don't have an examined life, you go mad.

From Taylor Negron

I paint. I still do it every day. I never neglected it. It's a gift. It's almost like religion for me. It's the quickest way for me to become still.

From Taylor Negron

Our family business was operating batting cages. The pitching machine spit out the balls at lightning speed. Don Drysdale, Sandy Koufax. Whitey Ford. 50 cents for 12 pitches. Of course, my mother ran the place, and I was her slave: selling candy, hosing down the street, and the most dreaded of all jobs, feeding the pitching machine with balls.

From Taylor Negron

My father became the Mayor of Indian Wells, California, a tony desert enclave of rich, conservative Republicans.
