In interviews, the first question I get in America is always: 'What do you do to stay young?' I do nothing. I don't think aging is a problem ...

I don't want to hurt anybody by laughing -- there is no meanness to it. I just want to laugh.

And I stay in my little solitude until I can get the strength to go outdoors.

To be honest, I'm more bothered by the fact that Gene Simmons' son is a comic artist than whether or not it's a rip-off.

People turn off the news, stop reading in-depth magazine articles - especially young people. Look at the increasing reluctance of young people to vote. I think a lot of that is directly - you can lay it at the feet of these negative campaigns and relentless attack ads.
