A lot of the powerful religious leaders, from Jesus to Buddha to Tibetan monks, they're really talking about the same things: love and acceptable, and the value of friendship, and respecting yourself so you can respect others.

Some locations are so terrible, you can't even breathe, and you still have to act.

There is a point in every young person's life when you realize that the youth that you've progressed through and graduate to some sort of adulthood is equally as messed up as where you're going.

If we could all just laugh at ourselves, in hard times or good times, it would be an incredible world.
