Fame terrifies me. I can say that with honesty. You're terrified that, when people know the real you, they won't like you.

All we can do now is try to prevent secondary damage by relieving pressure on the brain caused by the initial injury. There is no reparative treatment for traumatic brain injury.

It's very, very tempting to make a superhero film or show and make it about the powers.

I am incredibly self-deprecating. It stems from self-doubt.

I tried to fight the panic and force it back down to where it had come from.

My Brain is the key that sets me free.

I'm the unknown everyone's already sick of.

There's only one degree of freshness — the first, which makes it also the last

It's like you can't even go on the radio anymore and condemn a whole subset of people to hell without getting some blowback.
