I, quite frankly, am grateful for every day. I don't take anything for granted.

I think I have some interesting things to say and I don't think anybody out there is saying them.

I keep wondering how to explain the experience of child abuse from the inside. I'm going to try to explain what my world was like when I was sexually abused. The thing you have to remember is that this was the thinking of a child.

An apology might help, but you can change your life without one.

There's no operation where you can have your anger cut out. But if you work on yourself, as you get better, you'll be more capable of seeing others as flawed human beings. That makes it easier to forgive.

It's essential that a part of you not grow up. Childhood wonder gives us our spark and beauty.

Changing my body has given me the ability to do all these amazing things that I never in a million years imagined I could do.
