I've never concerned myself with the labels people want to put on you. What matters to me is my own estimation.

I wasn't dyslexic, I was just very slow. I passed my time daydreaming.

I don't represent myself as a star, but an actor who wants to make movies.

Donald Trump, yes, he's somebody's little boy. But he is his ideas because his ideas are what's going to affect us. As a man, he can do very little. But his ideas could kill us all.
