But now, like a fallen sparrow On a golden chain, I'm forever bound in shadow, A prisoner to my pain.

You cannot live this life anymore without the ability to read.

I am very much interested in getting parents to read to children, and trying to get people mentoring children. If I can do both I'll be happy.

Idiots don't know they're idiots, which is unfortunate.

I couldn't speak well. I went to speech therapy for 10 years. And I was sort of frustrated in that sense.

Each time I think there is no place lower to go, I find that there is at least one place that will mess you up worse than you were.

Sometimes I feel like I have walked into the middle of a movie. Maybe I can make my own movie. The film will be the story of my life. No, not my life, but of this experience. I'll call it what the lady who is the prosecutor called me. MONSTER.
