• I talk openly about my past and what I've gone through - abuse being something that was very real in my household, and a lot of chaos growing up as a child.

• It's a sign of this film's greatness that the enormous sadness that accompanies the final leave-taking of the circus interior is a good deal more than the conclusion of an unpretentious evening's entertainments; it's a sublime and awesome coda to the career of one of this century's greatest artists.

• Forget your sadness, anger, grudges, and hatred. Let them
  pass like smoke caught in the breeze. You should not deviate
  from the path of righteousness; you should lead a life worthy
  of a man. Don't be possessed by greed, luxury, or your ego.
  You should accept sorrows, sadness and hatred as they are,
  and consider them a chance for trial given to you by the
  powers... a blessing given by nature. Have both your mind and
  your time fully engaged in bud?, and have your mind deeply
  set on bujutsu.

• When the anger is intense, the person with Asperger's syndrome may be in a 'blind rage' and unable to see the signals indicating that it would be appropriate to stop. Feelings of anger can also be in response in situations where we would expect other emotions. I have noted that sadness may be expressed as anger.

• Everybody gets a tag. If you listen to a Velvet Underground record, you don't think, 'Godfathers of Punk.' You just think, 'This sounds great.' The tags are there in order to help try to sell something by giving it a name that's going to stick in somebody's memory. But it doesn't describe it. So 'depressing' isn't a word I would use to describe my music. But there is some sadness in it -- there has to be, so that the happiness in it will matter.

  Elliott Smith
