I like pressure. If I am not on the edge of failure, I'm not being sufficiently challenged.

Excuse me, guess I've mistaken you for somebody else, somebody who gave a damn, somebody more like myself.

I say to myself, sometimes the tide is just out. But it always comes back in again.

Like every girl, I felt amazing pressure to look like the popular girls, but no one told me the popular girls were all air brushed in magazines.

I was raised in a household where I read Nietzsche and Dostoyevsky and Kant, and I was never taught that my mind was feminine. I'm aware that my body is.

Lots of people have gone from public housing to do great things in the world and have a tremendous sense of duty to their fellow man because of it.

Live your life with love and bravery and you shall lead a life uncommon.
