I really dont go out at all; I just stay at home and watch movies and skateboard around the house.

Rugrats was my favorite cartoon growing up as a kid.

I'm weirdly flexible, so when I dance, I dance like a 17-year-old girl.

I love dancing, actually. My mother taught children's dance, ballet, tap, jazz...I'm very flexible.

I kind of strive for being able to go home and having a totally separate life.

I would like to think there is a reason and a choice behind everything.

You've got to stop going back and forth. You've got to make up your mind.

I think the movies that don't try to please people are movies that you respect more in the end.

I don't know how to describe my sense of humor.

To give up pretensions is as blessed a relief as to get them ratified.

American society as a whole can never achieve the outer-reaches of potential, so long as it tolerates the inner cities of despair.

We do not increase compassion by expanding it to cover anything. Instead, we kill a good word by making it mean too much, and nothing.

...the first sign of civilization is always trash.

The trappings of lifestyle are often that; traps.

I get it. Allah put me through it first so I could rise back up and help those around me. He trains you first. Then He sends the people to you and you to the people.
