“I started to be really proud of the fact I was gay even though I wasn’t”

Peace, love, empathy.

I’m a much happier guy than a lot of people think I am.

Don’t expect me to cry for the wrong reasons.

Rather be dead then cool.

I was tired of pretending that I was someone else just to get along with people, just for the sake of having friendships.

Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are.

They laugh at me because I’m different; I laugh at them because they’re all the same.

If you read, you’ll judge.

I mean I like to be passionate and sincere but I also like to have fun and act like a dork. Geeks unite.

I’m on my time with everyone.

Do your own thing. Others own their own thing. If you copy too much, you’ll find yourself in late night cocktail lounge cover band limbo.

Holding my baby is the best drug in the world.

I only remember a few things about Jimmy Carter. He had big lips and liked peanuts. I now know that Jimmy Carter was and is a good man.

Drugs are bad for you. They will fuck you up.

I didn’t find any of the girls in my high school attractive at all.

I never wanted to sing. I just wanted to play rhythm guitar – hide in the back and just play.

From my early youth I have had the strongest desire to understand or explain whatever I observed. To group all facts under some general laws.

To kill an error is as good a service as, and sometimes even better than, the establishing of a new truth or fact.

It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data. Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to suit facts.

The mere fact of photographic transposition means a total invention: the capture of a secret reality.

There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact.

Facts which at first seem improbable will, even on scant explanation, drop the cloak which has hidden them and stand forth in naked and simple beauty.

I’ve never tried to hide the fact that it is my intention to become the best.

When dictatorship is a fact, revolution becomes a right.
