My mother was a professional sick person; she took a lot of pain pills. There are many people like that. It's just how they are used to getting attention. I always remember she's the daughter of alcoholics who'd leave her alone at Christmas time.

Creative people don't behave very well generally. If you're looking for examples of good relationships in show business, you're gonna be depressed real fast. I don't have time for anything else right now but work and my daughter. She's my first priority.

I tend to stay up late, not because I'm partying but because it's the only time of the day when I'm alone and don't have to be performing.

There was a time when people said, 'Jim, if you keep on making faces, your face will freeze like that.' Now they just say, 'Pay him!'

People used to call her Debbie Reynolds' daughter. Now they call me Princess Leia's mother!

My upbringing in Canada made me the person I am. I will always be proud to be a Canadian.
