There's Still A Lot I'm Angry About, A Lot Of Human Behaviour That's Appalling And Despicable, But You Choose What You Can Fight Against. I Always Thought If I Could Just Put Something In Words Perfectly Enough, People Would Get The Idea And It Would Change Things.

I Read Recently That All Of Us Can Be Defined In Adult Life By The Way Others Perceived Us In High School. I Know [people] Who Had The Popular, Good-looking Path In High School; They Tend Not To Do So Well.

You Just Become Adaptable And Try To Lead A Good Life In Ways That Make Sense, Regardless. Because I Know At The End Of It, If I'm Going To Meet Jesus Or Allah Or Buddha, I'm Going To Be All Right.
