Celebrities, even insignificant ones like me, are created to be abused by the Great Unwashed.

My mother is an office manager, my father a professor of economics and financial planner.

Yeah, I think A Confederacy of Dunces is probably the perfect New Orleans book.

Ive tried to avoid labels, but they always find you.

It was like discovering that your innermost fires and terrors, the things you believed no one else could fathom, were in fact the basis of a recognized philosophy. Some part of you felt intimately invaded, threatened; some other part fell to its knees and sobbed in gratitude that it was no longer alone.

Maybe they did what they had to do to live, and tried to get a little love and have a little fun before the darkness took them.

I can't heal your pain but I can see it. And you don't have to be lost. Not forever.
