Sally Kirkland

With my ministry of light, part of what I do is work on the California Alliance For Arts Education.

My attitude is always one of sensuality, aggressive enthusiasm and a kind of outrageousness in my expression.

I think that souls agree to come in and do what they're going to do and then leave when they're going to leave. So there's nothing tragic when a soul leaves. I think it was already preordained.

The first thing that inspires me is my mood, but I take inspiration from a lot of things: a rock song, a romantic movie or a specific lifestyle, like 1960s London and, of course, Italian 'dolce vita!'

You have the Roman Catholic Church, the Church of England, the Presbyterians, the Wesleyans, represented in each school, and they are each to take alternate days.

I would've done anything to work with Satyajit Ray.
