Everything is nicer if you feel you're in love.

I love escaping into character. It's a chance to try on people that you wouldn't be brave or stupid enough to be in real life.

I love watching people, and that's what I do; just go for a walk at about 4 o'clock, and go down a busy street, where you see people coming out of school and you get a glimpse of their lives, what they're talking about.

I didn't have a particular persona. I'm not Alice Cooper, you know?

People are so busy anyway they don't see you or recognise you in the street.

You can't live in your own secluded world. If you're not on the Tube, on the bus doing normal things, how can you relate to people?
