Violence against women is still treated as a lesser crime. Armed groups turn it into a weapon of choice because of near total impunity.

I am the kind of person who doesn't recognize borders. I don't understand why we think it is okay to keep someone within one border when they are unable to feed their family when they could be getting help somewhere else. I don't see people as different so I don't understand the idea of borders in this world.

The beautiful thing about such moments in life is that there is so much clarity. You know what you live for and what matters.

Like most people, you listen to yourself on the phone or an answering machine and you're like, 'Ugh.' So to do something with just your voice is hard.

I didn't die young. So I am very lucky. There are other artists and people that didn't survive certain things... people can imagine that I did the most dangerous, and I did the worst... for many reasons, I shouldn't be here.

I guess that I've always wanted to be a Bond villain.

Don't fit in, don't sit still, don't ever try to be less than what you are...
