Honesty has always been an integral part of my operation, really.

Eventually, I think you find a spiritual and emotional connection with someone, and I think it unifies you with everyone else. I think if you love one person, it makes you love everyone.

Be led by your talent, not by your self-loathing; those other things you just have to manage.

The happiest moments in our life aren't "Oh I got a new hat or a wonderful silvery object, some glistening bauble." But it's when you connect with another human being. If you can find the $18 in your pocket, you are purchasing dreams with that money.

For me happiness occurs arbitrarily: a moment of eye contact on a bus, where all at once you fall in love; or a frozen second in a park where it's enough that there are trees in the world.

Drugs and alcohol are not my problem, reality is my problem, drugs and alcohol are my solution.

We continue to be spilled on by consumerism even though we know it doesn't make us happy.
