I think what I am is a "convener"; I like to convene people around ideas.

What you are will show, ultimately. Start now, every day, becoming, in your actions, your regular actions, what you would like to become in the bigger scheme of things.

I'm interested when things are upside down - because there are so many possibilities in that one moment. There is a lot that is exposed.

Identity is an assemblage of constellations.

We spend so much time bantering about the words when the real open conversations might very well be our actions. I worry about our rhetoric.

I love that magazine, man - Victoria's Secret - and it comes, like, every three hours.

Beef. Yes. Roast beef. It's the Swedish term for beef that is roasted.

I just keep working on things I like, and hope for the best. I hope people enjoy them.
