| "Some of the most wonderful people are the ones who don't fit into boxes." "I wrote Silent All These Years because you can have a big mouth and not be saying anything." "Women must understand that simply attacking or hating men is just another form of disempowerment. A woman has to realize that when she makes a man crawl, it doesn't give her power." "Noisy doesn't always mean 'hardcore'." "I have my own parties. They involve being barefoot with a piece of fried chicken and a margarita in each hand." "Don't ever call yourselves a fan, you're ears with feet." "If you want wisdom, you cannot buy it at the store. You can't get invited to that party. You have to do the work." "People think I'm nuts because I can sit in a room and be happy by myself." "I don't see myself as weird, I just see myself as honest." "You can only be you. A lot of times it's never enough for some people." "None of us is ever that far... just an element away." "I'm not like potato chips. I'm like a sardine. Not everybody likes those little suckers." "I'm a tomato freak, but sometimes you have to get it in ketchup for for people to be open to tomatoes." "You decide whether to look at your reality or live pretending these feelings don't exist." "I wanted to be a ballerina, but my thighs are like rhinoceroses." "What girls do to each other is beyond description; no Chinese torture comes close." "Forgiveness is the most important thing about friendship." "I had good memories of who I was before I was five, and then I became everybody else's idea of who I was." "There are only ten ideas under the sun. What makes the difference is how you spice them." "There are a lot of hidden nerds. I'm aware of the exciting man in Trent the Nine Inch, but I can see the nerd in him, too. People who become the front runners often used to be outcasts or loners." |
