There’s no cure for ugly, but you can make yourself into a human optical illusion.

You are constantly changing & evolving through your experiences, how you interpret your experiences, and how you choose to do things in the future based on those experiences.

The single greatest gift you could ever give the world is to be exactly who you are.

Don't ever, ever, ever give up, because you're here for a reason, even if it's just to laugh at cats on the internet.

You are the most rare & majestic you there ever was and ever will be.

Make your face not look like your face by piling on like the heaviest makeup you can find and do it with some kind of brush that won't judge you.

In order to find out who you are, you will, at some point, have to feel really isolated, left out, different.

You become yourself, every single day of your life, through your choices and how you think.

One of the benefits of being you is: You know that the people who love you, love you for you. They don't love you for who they think you are or who you're pretending to be.

As weird and awful and terrible as it may seem to be yourself sometimes, it will always reward you.

If you have something floating in your drink, then you know you're ready. Seriously, what's in my drink? Aliens. Still gonna drink it.

Listening is an important skill to spark creativity and cultivate empathy.

What you decide to be is what you will begin to see.

When I was young, I would sit in the bath and ideas would come to me. But I'm not young any more, so now I just sit in the bath.

I've never enjoyed my running more. I also do 200 sit-ups a day, 60 push-ups, and a lot of stretching. I've had some back issues. I think the stretching helps with that.

Imagining and fantasizing did nothing but break her heart.

While tenderness of feeling and susceptibility to generous emotions are accidents of temperament, goodness is an achievement of the will and a quality of the life.

You better not mess with chimps. They are much stronger than humans.

Behavior is a mirror in which every one shows his image. [Ger., Das Betragen ist ein Spiegel in welchem jeder sein Bild zeigt.]

The first album is a classic record and I think the prototype of a sound that no one else does.

I say, Father, the years have brought me here, still your son, they have brought me to a life I cannot understand.
