As for today's music, Nicki Minaj is killing it. She's an amazing artist.

The trapeze was my first love. To me, it's normal. It's all I've ever known.

You should hear what my parents wanted to call me. It was between Brown Rice, Neon Hitch and Z. Ziggurat Zanzibar Zandorf. I'm not joking. Imagine fitting that on my passport!

I don't believe in trying to be somebody you're not - just be a bigger, better version of yourself.

I don't follow the rules. That's kind of how I do everything.

I believe in magic, and having a vision. The tough times made me a warrior. I work hard.

I have a little gypsy palace here in New York. It's all mirrors, and I have my own garden. It's so secluded - the closest thing to a caravan I could find!

My background sets me apart. I've never been able to relate to many people. I've always been the outcast child.

Through my music, I've found a place in the world where I'm accepted, so I'm happy.

The Beatles are my number one - I think everything they did was amazing!

My family traveled with a whole community to European festivals. My mum did gymnastics, freak show performances, and swung fire in the circus, so I followed her footsteps.

Without travels, our existence, our memories, our literature, our dreams, our everything would be very poor, very boring, very limited!

When people's faith in the collective intelligence increases, falls to the same extent their own individual sense of responsibility.

How this woman had managed to get under his skin and claw her way inside was a mystery. He couldn’t leave her there though. His entire being was screaming at him to get her out.

I think the greatest of people that have ever been in society, they were never versions of someone else. They were themselves.

When we deal with the name and reputation of another we deal with something sacred in the sight of the Lord.

There is one Quality, which has somewhat so heavenly in it; that by so much the more we are possess'd of it, by so much the more we draw nearer to the Great Author of Nature.

...by bringing myself over the edge and back, I discovered a passion to live my days fully, a conviction that will sustain me like sweet water on the periodically barren plain of our short lives.

Love with no boundaries. Your future depends on your capacity to love.

I am not a god of forgiveness. (Acheron)

You only get so many firsts, each one is a blessing.
