The autistic brain tends to be a specialist brain, good at one thing, bad at something else.

I get asked a lot why cats mess outside the litter box. The simplest thing is if you have more than one cat and you have two litter boxes, don't put them right next to each other.

My life is basically my work.

Medication should never be considered the only tool for helping a person.

I think it's a real shame so many schools have taken out the hands-on classes. Art, music, auto mechanics, cooking, sewing, these are all things that can turn into jobs. You know, wood shop, steel shop, welding. These are all things that can turn into great careers, get kids interested. Things they can do with other students. Other things for our word thinkers: journalism clubs, drama clubs.

I'm a big believer in getting kids involved in things where there's a shared interest because that's where they can have friends.

I'm pure geek, pure logic.
