I’ve never had anyone’s approval, so I’ve learned to live without it.

I learned that if I could read, I could cook. I surprised myself I like it.

I loved my parents... but that can never change the fact that my father's violence ruined my childhood.

When I was 5 years old, my mother read me 'Gone With The Wind' at night, before I went to bed. I remember her reading almost all year.

I lived with the terrible knowledge that one day I would be an old man still waiting for my real life to start. Already, I pitied that old man.

I don't believe in happy families.

In families, there are no crimes beyond forgiveness.
