In so many areas of life, I'm a spaz and incompetent.

When I was a kid growing up in New York, I was pretty unaware of racism. I think when we're young - before we lose our innocence - we're sort of unaware of the more flawed qualities of each other.

Everyday should be a good day to die

People are not very pro-active in general, I think, because we are too busy rushing blindly towards our own goals.

I found there's a fairly blatant racism in America that's already there, and I don't think I noticed it when I lived here as a kid. But when I went back to South Africa, and then it's sort of thrust in your face, and then came back here - I just see it everywhere.

I think we should all talk to our enemies and talk to our friends. Talk! That's the only way we'll find solutions.

So often we talk about saving the planet, but what we really mean is to save the planet the way it is, so we can live here. So that is can sustain us.
