Indians have a big problem with alcohol and drugs. I grew up with an admiration for their culture and was sensitive to their problems.

I have photographs taken of me at the time I was addicted, and thought I looked good. I see them today and realize my eyes were dead.

When I see someone who is starved, they don't look alert. They don't have boundless energy. If you're too skinny, it looks like you're near death.

I believe that behind both the person who weighs 400 pounds and the one who weighs 85 there is a lot of baggage, and it has nothing to do with their bodies.

Smile, don’t frown. Look up don’t look down. Believe in yourself Don’t let yourself go. Just be who you are. And let your live flow.

The thing about me is, I don't care what religion you are. If someone is attacking your religion, I will have your back, and I will defend you. I think that is the most repulsive thing a person can do, attack another person's faith.

I don't smoke pot. I never liked it.
