People start to act very unusually when they find out that they're dying, that they don't have that many years left.

When a high-profile personality lives like I do, everybody thinks that person is fated to die young.

For a culture that has such a problem with death, we seem to deal with it in a quite bizarre way. We see people shot, killed and blown up, and we find it funny and sexy and all those things. But, the reality of it is that every day people die, and people are really sad and they grieve and they go through a really difficult process with it.

Death's an old joke, but each individual encounters it anew.

For kids like me, being called childish can be a frequent occurrence. Every time we make irrational demands, exhibit irresponsible behavior, or display any other signs of being normal American citizens, we are called childish.

There are few things more fundamentally encouraging and stimulating than seeing someone else die.

Some people are so afraid to die that they never begin to live.

People always grow and mature.
