I think we have a tendency in America to keep dividing ourselves, separating ourselves from each other.

What happens when someone throws you against a wall or tells you you're a jackass or puts you down or calls you bad names? It goes into your body. We hold it in our body. If we don't have a way to let that go and release that, it becomes sickness eventually.

Since cancer, I feel like I have dreams rather than ambitions, visions rather than plans.
