I don't need to be someone famous or George Clooney. I don't need to be any of these people to get involved in my community or reach out to one nationally.

Even if there isn't a God, I believe in the one we've created.

Growing up, I was in and out of trouble in group homes and other institutions, and when I was 14, I was locked up in a psychiatric hospital for a number of months for behavioral problems.

I want to work with non-profits that stimulate growth to the community. Whether it is economic growth, intellectual, or freedom.

Your own family resemblances are a frustrating code, most easily read by those who know you least.

What we have now, shall never be again. The poets of the past sit in amazement of the wanna-be's of an era long gone.

When I was in college, I had a jazz radio show. I called it 'Excursion on a Wobbly Rail,' after a Cecil Taylor song. I used to run around the Village following Ornette Coleman wherever he played.
