I couldn't deal with playing a character who rides motorcycles and has a leather jacket and is a tough kid, y'know?

My dad's probably one of the kindest people in the world. When I was younger that's not how I was- I was a little spoiled brat.

When I was young I used to have this thing where I wanted to see everything I used to think 'How can I die without seeing every inch of this world?'

Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.

The first kiss I had was the most disgusting thing in my life. The girl injected about a pound of saliva into my mouth, and when I walked away I had to spit it all out.

Everywhere I go, somebody is staring at me. I don't know if people are staring because they recognize me or because they think I'm a weirdo.

Raising awareness on the most pressing environmental issues of our time is more important than ever.

I'm just starting to scratch the surface of what really makes me happy and it's taken me a while to admit that acting like a little child and being a jerk and a punk is fun.

There will always be someone, a friend, a relative, a co-worker even, just someone, who will be willing to try that bad thing with you. And they won’t judge you, so don’t worry about that.

To make mistakes or be wrong is human. To admit those mistakes shows you have the ability to learn, and are growing wiser.

You priests. You're all the same. You think fasting helps you think about God, when anyone who can cook would tell you that fasting just makes you think about food.

What we need is not a history of selected races or nations, but the history of the world void of national bias, race hate, and religious prejudice.

You must build your House of Parliament on the river: so... that the populace cannot exact their demands by sitting down round you.

When Robert Frost was alive, I was known as the other new England poet, which is to be barely known at all.

The swan murmurs sweet strains with a flattering tongue, itself the singer of its own dirge.

The world ends when I die. And as far as I'm concerned, the rest of the universe might as well call it a day too.

The damage, the fatigue, the imperfections. That's how they recognize me; Why I belong to them.
