I Went To A Doctor And Told

I Was Born Into Big Celebrity. It Could Only Diminish.

Happy Is One Of The Many Things I'm Likely To Be Over The Course Of A Day And Certainly Over The Course Of A Lifetime. But I Think If You Have The Expectation That You're Going To Be Happy Throughout Your Life--more To The Point, If You Have A Need To Be Comfortable All The Time--well, Among Other Things, You Have The Makings Of A Classic Drug Addict Or Alcoholic.

When My Brother, Todd [fisher], Was Born My Father Was Already With Elizabeth [taylor]. I Was 19 Or 20 When I First Spent A Block Of Time With Him.

I Used To Refer To My Drug Use As Putting The Monster In The Box. I Wanted To Be Less, So I Took More - Simple As That. Anyway, I Eventually Decided That The Reason Dr. Stone Had Told Me I Was Hypomanic Was That He Wanted To Put Me On Medication Instead Of Actually Treating Me. So I Did The Only Rational Thing I Could Do In The Face Of Such As Insult - I Stopped Talking To Stone, Flew Back To New York, And Married Paul Simon A Week Later.

I Have The Ability, Occasionally, Of Being Able To Step Out And See Who You Think I Could End Up Being. And I Like To Play With That.
