“ I wanted to get away anyway, not against parental authority, but from being a misfit against society. I was a misfit and a maverick when it came to clothes too. When I was 16 I was wearing zoot suits. I wouldn't be seen in a T-shirt. I wanted to look sharp. ”

“ I like raunchiness, not like in a biker-chick sort of a way, but like the girl can't help it. Little bruises, a few hairs out of place, a little stain here and there. ”

“ I have a passion for big cats, I like big snakes. There is something about snakes that is so wise, they have this uncanny perfection. I'd like to get inside their reptilian heads. ”

“ I like classic cars, I've had some really good ones. A '66 Toronado, a black one - it's a very satanic-looking car. I have a coffin-nosed '37 Cord, white, I've had that one since 1956. I've had a '34 Deusenburg, a '48 Lincoln Continental with the squared-off windows… ”

“ Yeah, well, I'm crazy, but I'm not stupid, hopefully. And I think we're all a bit crazy if we do anything that's deviant. I've studied a great deal on deviance and aberrant behavior. Most of the interesting people I've ever met have been deviant in one form or another. ”

“ You were supposed to look like a G.I. with close-cropped hair, but my hair was too long for the time, a duck tail in the back, curled over in the front. I could pass for 25 when I was 16. It did help me get into the world of burlesque. ”

“ I've always been timid. I wait for the mating signal, yet I want to show my interest, but I'm too goddamn bashful to go for it! I have no sympathy for wolves. Why can't a man wait and see if there is any interest in them? Every woman wants to be pursued, it's a courting dance, a mating game and it should be that way, played out… ”

“ The Black Dahlia, she was someone who was just waiting for an executioner, waiting for it to happen. She was an ideal victim. I've met quite a few like her. They're just crying out, not just to be killed, but also tortured. She seemed very parasitic, a psychic vampire. ”

“ But the average person doesn't have that much imagination. They just want to be entertained. They want to have the tableau presented for them. They don't want to participate beyond a certain point. They want the safety of the herd, to be catered to, sit back and enjoy. ”

“ My parents were lenient. My mother believed God was another word for nature. I took up Satanism not out of desperation, but out of logic. I rebelled, not but because of a religious or repressive childhood. I wanted to join the French Foreign Legion. ”

“ The carnival was the predecessor to the burlesque world-this all tied together, the psychic, the hypnotic… That gave me a good foundation for playing the girlie shows, my opportunity to play for female dancers. I also played midway music and worked the sex shows. ”

“ The path of least resistance was to get into an established burlesque house. I got my first job as an organist at the Burbank on Main Street in downtown L.A. The Follies was a sleazy place down the street. L.A. was quite a place back in the '40s, it was a haunted city. ”
