I lived crazy really young. So now I don't need to go out and get nuts.

I'm not political. I just want America to do well, I want the world to do well. I want everyone to stop fighting.

I'm frustrated when I see movies in which I feel like the plot is being told to me instead of shown to me.

For a time, it would work well. then it worked less and my pain was more. I would go through wild bouts of depression, horrible comedowns. I understand why kids kill themselves. I absolutely do. You feel terrible. You feel soul-less. "I'll never do it to my child".

Everyone always talks about the speed of New York, and I still walk slow around New York, and everyone is walking faster than me all the time, and I notice it every time we go out.

If it wasn't for her literally doing my homework for me, I would not have even graduated high school. Guaranteed . . . My mom always said, 'Luck is nothing but preparation and opportunity.' I think because I've had that history of not really being great in school, I probably try to overcompensate. That's why I try to read so many books. Just so I don't feel . . . uneducated.

A well arranged scrapbook, filled with choice selections, is a most excellent companion for anyone who has the least literary taste.
