For a long time I wanted to be special and to stick out amongst the crowd. Something I yearn for now is to be one of many.

Whether I'm a hero or a zero doesn't really matter. It's all perception.

I don't want to get into an argument at the bar with some old racist homophobic person.

The more you get into conversations with people, you find out they've been brainwashed by the news and they don't actually know any better.

Sometimes people think, "You don't get to have it all, you don't get to be happy, life's a struggle," but what if it's not?

Because I can isolate and be a bit of a loner, [my ideal] is finding some sense of community where I'm one of many and where my skills are equally as important and valuable.

I was toying with the idea of ambivalence a lot. It's something I work on, not being so invested in outcomes and being more engaged in the process of my life.
