I was born in California, raised a vegetarian, and love science fiction, so don't tell me how I need to be in order to fit your standards. When I was younger, those kinds of comments bothered me, but eventually got to a point where I realized I wasn't going to change who I was.

When I get old and slow down I want to look behind me and see all the fire and the wreckage and no stone left unturned.

Marriage is a mystery and part of it is just being kind to each other, not being selfish.

Sometimes the mistake I see people make is thinking that they're always going to be up, and I think that's impossible for anyone.

I'm my own boss and my boss is a total ass.

Every ethnic group has this where people within it will try and tell each other how they should be. So what I would say to other people is to just embrace who you are because you will become instantly happier.

I love to be busy and be challenged. I'm my happiest when I'm under pressure and almost overwhelmed by how much I have to get done. I wish I could say I'm an architect and planned it this way, foresaw doing all these things, but honestly, I've been lucky that things have come across my path and they've worked out well for me.
