The dog actors and the relationship they have with their trainers is one of the most beautiful things I've ever watched happen in front of me.

My mom said I was a handful. Now I'm helpful.

For years I stopped reading beauty magazines because I couldn't look at one without wanting to blow my brains out. How can those women look so good?

You can't live a truthful life without regret.

I work with The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University. I sit proudly as one of only two recovering addicts on their board.

The only two questions that need to be asked each day are: Did I live wisely? Did I love well?

I feel very positive where I never did before, and I think that's all a direct result of getting sober.
