Sometimes I get this gut feeling about people - maybe I sense a hidden agenda or that they care for the money more than the message.

People ask me why I wear veils. I reply, I am mourning. Mourning what? Well I figure something shitty must be going on somewhere.

I don't want to make money; I want to make a difference.
