“Freedom of speech wasn't won by being nice, it has been won by struggle with religion.”

“I always bought pictures, I only started to buy oil paintings when I started to make serious amounts of money because they cost a serious amount of money.”

“Walking is central to my relaxation because when I'm writing I'm stationary for seven hours at a time.”

“When you're very famous, very young, there's that little thing of, 'Are they being nice to me because they think I'm a nice person? Or is it because they want to tell their friends 'Guess who I was with last night?'”

“I taunt and provoke, but you have to understand that I do that for a reason. I want to elicit a response. Remember that my mission is to capture on film and digital recording devices evidence of the paranormal. Many times, I can't do that by being nice.”

“Young women especially have something invested in being nice people, and it's only when you have children that you realise you're not a nice person at all, but generally a selfish bully.”
