Help, love, forgive, and create beauty.

Love is no conditions. Love is given, despite hurt or rejection. Love is life and breath and touch. Love is helping someone live.

It is the youngest in the family who tends to the elders to learn about the sacredness of life and the beauty of death.

I serve with my art and creativity. That makes me most happy.

I have interviewed so many people who are put into nursing homes or hospices and are just waiting to die. It's a very lonely situation to just sit at a window and watch life go by.

Love. Help with no expectations. Destroy selfishness, self... At the end of our lives, I believe the soul will be asked, "What did you do for your fellow man?"

My friends. They help me so much. I would not be here without my friends.

My vulnerability is thinking that I am not worth people's time or space at times.

Misunderstanding is my cornerstone. It's everyone's, come to think of it. Illusions mistaken for truth are the pavement under our feet.

Please go to this pizzeria. Order the margherita pizza with double mozzarella. If you do not eat this pizza when you are in Naples, please lie to me and tell me that you did.

I gave up something I wanted for something I need. And I need you, Angel.

It is only through dialogue, deep listening, and passionate disagreement that we find our way to something larger than a singular and isolated point of view.

A God-intoxicated man.

The thing about hip-hop today is it's smart, it's insightful. The way they can communicate a complex message in a very short space is remarkable.

I hate the words 'handicapped' and 'disabled'. They imply that you are less than whole. I don't see myself that way at all.

I think that artifice is the new reality. It's more about just being honest and sincere to the core of what you do. Whether I'm wearing lots of makeup or no makeup, I'm always the same person inside.

I know that the creator will go, but his work survives. That is why to escape death, I attempt to bind my soul to my work.
