You can actually take your pain and processes it into some kind of form of art. So I mean, I've easily always been able to do that, but also I've always been able to give myself perspective - or, you know, older people always give you perspective.

The best medicine for pain sometimes is some kind of logic and common sense from older folks. They tell you, "Okay, you're not the only one who actually went through this."

If I can't change the people around me, I change the people around me.

I'm not a U.S. citizen. I mean, I'm an earth-izen. Borderline policies are crap to me.

If you go get a passport, it might encourage you to at least consider the world around you.

I don't believe that everybody is out of some kind of cookie cutter, so the thing that protects me is always being level with myself, even to myself.
