Your truth really can't be twisted. It is what it is. That doesn't mean that a person can't develop and change and reinterpret their life.

I would not give up a lot of what I know about my heritage. I would not give up knowing where I came from, the good parts and the bad parts.

When I was thinking about all the things that the world had forgotten, it made me think about people who have actually really forgotten everything, and how much of our identity is wrapped up in those memories, and how much of our experience makes us who we are, and remembering those experiences makes us who we are.

I would never say that I'm not going to do something. I like not being limited.

History is absolutely my thing.

I'm a history person, and I love the groundedness of that, of being able to go, "Yes! People acted like that."

I think there's a lot that we remember almost chemically, through our DNA.
