When I got out of the hospital, it was one of those classic things - you're looking death in the eye, and it changes you. I thought, I ought to go back on the road.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I looked Death right in the face.
I knew people were going to see me see deteriorate before their eyes.
I have photographs taken of me at the time I was addicted, and thought I looked good. I see them today and realize my eyes were dead.
I just looked at him because I want to be looking in someone's eyes when I die.
My eyes don't work, at least not fully, because they are blocked by disease. The scene around me appears through a kind of curtain, a haze.
I've always got my eye on my deathbed.
When you look at death, it makes you understand the importance of the moment when you have life and death in front of you, and you witness seeing someone deteriorating in front of you - it's an overwhelming experience. If you don't learn from that, I don't know what else you're gonna learn.
Always read something that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it.
In 1985, I saw a tape of myself where my eyes were puffy. I looked very tired and bedraggled and not as youthful as I would like to have been.
I don't like it when people don't look me dead in the eye. I move my head around trying to catch their eye.
