Há um certo prazer na loucura, que somente um louco conhece.

A criança que não brinca não é uma criança, mas o homem que não brinca perdeu para sempre a criança que vivia nele e… vai fazer muita falta.

O amor nasce das memórias, vive da inteligência e morre por esquecimento.

Não faça com o amor o que uma criança faz com a sua bola que ao tê-la ignora e ao perdê-la chora.

Quem descobre quem sou descobrirá quem és.

Porque vem até mim todo o amor de repente quando me sinto triste, e te sinto tão longe?

Sofre mais aquele que espera do que aquele que nunca esperou ninguém?

É por isso que toda minha palavra tem um coração onde circula sangue.

É proibido não sorrir para os problemas, não lutar pelo o que se quer, abandonar tudo por medo, e não transformar em realidade seus sonhos.

Para o meu próximo número necessito que me beije e farei aparecer magicamente borboletas em seu estomâgo.

In the end, it's your job to own the role, and in the end, you are playing certain aspects of your own self, even.

I think most people read and re-read the things that they have liked. That's certainly true in my case. I re-read Pound a great deal, I re-read Williams, I re-read Thomas, I re-read the people whom I cam to love when I was at what you might call a formative stage.

We are not the Westboro Baptist Church. We are a church that embraces the tenants of historic Christianity - there's nothing hateful about our members at all.

Death Row had a lot of artists. They had Snoop, the Dogg Pound, the Lady of Rage, and there was other artists that was also on the label, so it was a big list and a long wait. I didn't want to wait that long, so I started branching off and doing my own thing.

I am presently in my thirteenth year of teaching a graduate course at the University of Southern California.

This is what we call smart power. Using every possible tool and partner to advance peace and security. Leaving no one on the sidelines. Showing respect even for one's enemies.
