I was a cocky kid, and I felt like I was an adult at, like, 9. I think that's because my parents always treated me as an adult.

I have a lot of really wonderful friends who are of very different sexes and genders.

I think a lot of people are projecting their own troubles and fears concerning sexuality onto those around them, and it does result in the perpetuation of a lot of hateful notions. As long as I can remember, I've felt really horrified watching those dynamics play out.

My personal opinion is that truth, like honesty and non-harmfulness, often are at odds with one another.

If one took a role with the intention of, "I'll show them what I can do!," then it's not going to be good because the ego is going to just block everything.

There's no true value placed in learning, if the point of you learning something is to simply know it for a test, to get a grade, to go to the good school.

Getting socially outcast can be the best and most informative thing that can ever happen to you because you have to learn who you are separate from the pack.
