I feel very strongly that we need to give beef cattle a really good life. When they go to slaughter, it needs to be painless.

I don't define myself as autistic first. I don't want to be a professional autistic. I think it's important to have a real job.

Some autistic children cannot stand the sound of certain voices. I have come across cases where teachers tell me that certain children have problems with their voice or another person's voice. This problem tends to be related to high-pitched ladies' voices.

People on the autistic spectrum tend to get fixated on what they think.

You simply cannot tell other people they are stupid, even if they really are stupid.

I think one of the worst things schools have done is taken out all of the stuff like art, music, woodworking, sewing, cooking, welding, auto-shop. All these things you can turn into careers. How can you get interested in these careers if you don't try them on a little bit?

There is a small segment of people with autism that have savant skills, where they can memorize entire maps of whole entire city. They can do calendar calculations. And this is similar to some of the skills that animals have.
