That's how I always try to start my thoughts. I write them down first, eventually it turns into a poem, and if I feel like composing something to it, then I do that.

When you have a lot of fake selves, most of the time it's because you haven't had parents around so you try to build characters to protect yourself.

If you've got great parents, once you grow up and have to live by yourself, you're going to create some fake self as you get comfortable wherever you are.

You can't judge people by their cover.

I started understanding William Blake and George Orwell more and more. It's amazing how we go to school when we're so young, read all of these books, just trying to memorize them. When you start to live, you don't have to memorize anything.

I was lucky to have read a lot of poetry when I was younger; it helped me to remember a way to write.
