It doesn't have any effect on your life. What do you care?! People try to talk about it like it's a social issue. Like when you see someone stand up on a talk show and say, "How am I supposed to explain to my children that two men are getting married?... I dunno. It's your shitty kid. You fuckin' tell 'em.

I find that when people laugh it's usually because they're connecting and identifying in a way that they hadn't considered. That's my payoff. I'm not interested in other people thinking differently. I don't care. I'm just like yeast - I eat sugar and I shit alcohol. And there's a huge culture that goes with that. Alcohol creates massive shifts in world history, and it changes people's lives.

Everything's amazing right now, and nobody's happy.
I__ bored_ is a useless thing to say. I mean, you live in a great, big, vast world that you__e seen none percent of. Even the inside of your own mind is endless; it goes on forever, inwardly, do you understand? The fact that you__e alive is amazing, so you don__ get to say ____ bored.

You__l be fine. You__e 25. Feeling [unsure] and lost is part of your path. Don__ avoid it. See what those feelings are showing you and use it. Take a breath. You__l be okay. Even if you don__ feel okay all the time.
Misery is wasted on the miserable.
I have a lot of beliefs, and I live by none of them.

Pamela, I__ in love with you. Yeah, it__ that bad. You__e so beautiful to me. Shut up! Lemme tell you. Let me. Every time I look at your face or even remember it, it wrecks me - and the way you are with me - and you__e just fun and you shit all over me and you make fun of me and you__e real.

The idea that you would want me back it__ like greedy.
