I am like a caricature of myself, and I like that. It is like a mask. And for me the Carnival of Venice lasts all year long.

Sunglasses are like eye shadow: They make everything look younger and pretty

I like the idea of craziness with discipline.

Sweatpants are a sign of defeat. You lost control of your life so you bought some sweatpants.
