I never really got nightmares from movies. In fact, I recall my father saying when I was three years old that I would be scared, but I never was.

One person's craziness is another person's reality.

Visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dreams?

Anybody with artistic ambitions is always trying to reconnect with the way they saw things as a child.

Don't worry about how you 'should' draw it. Just draw it the way you see it.

Live people ignore the strange and unusual. I myself, am strange and unusual.

Maybe it's just in America, but it seems that if you're passionate about something, it freaks people out. You're considered bizarre or eccentric. To me, it just means you know who you are.

If youve ever had that feeling of loneliness, of being an outsider, it never quite leaves you. You can be happy or successful or whatever, but that thing still stays within you.

Drawing is exercise for a restless imagination.

I am the shadow on the moon at night/Filling your dreams to the brim with fright.

Thank God for the gift of life.

You always go by your gut. That's the best you can do. You go by what you feel, and you say yes or no based on what it inspires in you.

Fear is about things that you can't control. The future or the dark, or someone trying to kill you. You don't get scared of yourself because you always know what you're going to do.

In short? It is exhausting being me. Pretending to be normal is draining and requires amazing amounts of energy and Xanax.

If England had scored in the first half, I think the young legs would have found younger hearts inside them

I think teenagers bring a lot of intellectual sophistication. They're wrestling with big questions. It's just that, a lot of times they do that separately from adults.

I can't think that leaving Earth once is enough.

I'm a Tennessean at heart, and a New Yorker in spirit.

Peace and happiness are what you covet, but these are only to be obtained by labor.

I often find that getting head issues out of the way first makes the heart stuff easier to work on later.
