• People aren't born good or bad. Maybe they're born with tendencies either way, but it's the way you live your life that matters. And the people you know.

• If you find yourself saying 'I can't do something', but you know it in your heart of hearts that if you do it, you're going to grow, you're going to be a better person, it's going to contribute to your family or to your kids or to something that matters, and you keep saying 'I can't do it,' there is no question—you must do it.

• I just think that whole culture of hatred, and also feeling like it's your right to judge people when you don't know them, is really f***ed up.

Self esteem, that's something you've got to work on yourself. I know for me it's different day to day.
