I was on food stamps until I was 18 and became an adult.

I know, in my heart of hearts, I don't do things for money.

I always feel kind of absurd and presumptuous presenting a speech.

Call me a nerd if you like, but I do find it hard to leave home without my laptop and a good book.

We hope that as a species we're capable of dealing with environmental catastrophe before it actually does collectively kill most of us.

More often than not, whenever gossip has been written about me, the gossip is more interesting than the reality. I know some public figures hate gossip, but personally I like it because it makes my life sound more glamorous and interesting than it really is.

You make mistakes and you learn from them.
