I was spiritually bankrupt, and when that happens, it's like a spiritual cancer afflicts you.

I don't make things complicated, that's the way they get all by themselves.

The whole notion of politics is they always present you with this or this or this. I’ll get a newspaper to read between the lines. Why do you have to adhere to prescribed formulas that they have and people argue over them and they’re all in a box. And you watch Fox claw CNN, and CNN claw Fox. Sometimes I catch a piece of the news and it seems insanity to me. I quietly support candidates. I’m not out there banging a drum for candidates. But I have supported a candidate and it’s a whole other world.

I think everything is pretty well preordained - even your mistakes.

Creating life simply to destroy it is wrong.

They think I'm crazy and maybe I am. But maybe I'm a genius.

I have learned that a bitter experience can make you stronger. I now boastfully say that I have a hide like a rhinoceros... and I'm smiling. It's an interesting thing.
