Pressure is calming to the nervous system.

Mild autism can give you a genius like Einstein. If you have severe autism, you could remain nonverbal. You don't want people to be on the severe end of the spectrum. But if you got rid of all the autism genetics, you wouldn't have science or art. All you would have is a bunch of social 'yak yaks.'

I'd rather see a kid get fixated on something they can turn into a career.

I'm seeing too many geeky, nerdy kids get addicted to video games and they're going nowhere. It's making me crazy.

People are getting too far away from the real-world. Politics is just ridiculous, it's totally dysfunctional.

I played around with vegetarianism back in the '70s. One thing, my physiology just got to have animal protein. I get hypoglycemic, I get all light-headed unless I eat animal protein.

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?
