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.

I have very short hair. It's the only cute haircut I think I've ever had.

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.

Kids are going to try drugs and alcohol; that's part of society.

By the way, food and rent aren't the only things around here that cost money. You sleep on the couch.

With short hair you have to get a haircut every two or three weeks. And if you're coloring your hair, you have to color it that often. Every time I did it, I felt fraudulent.

I'm not a prophet. I'm not a teacher. I have no degrees. My degree is from the University of Life.
