I went right from wunderkind to washed up. Old. Been around too long. That's just the way I feel. That's my internal dialogue.

My head's a carousel of pictures and The spinning never stops.

I really just want to be warm yellow light that pours over everyone I love.

I find that life is easier when it is just a blur With no details to confuse who or what or where I was So when the ending comes the full regret will be obscure

I think there's so much about Rasta culture that's interesting. Just the idea of preaching one-ness, that we're all in this together.

Now I believe that lovers should be draped in flowers and laid entwined together on a bed of clover and left there to sleep, left there to dream of their happiness.

It's not a movie, no private screening This method acting, well, I call that living

I drink to stay warm, and to kill selected memories

I like to feel the burn of the audience's eyes when I'm whispering all my darkest secrets into the microphone.

If the world could remain within a frame like a painting on the wall, I think we'd see the beauty then and stand staring in awe.

You should never be embarrassed by your trouble with living, because it's the ones with the sorest throats who have done the most singing.

My life - my personality, my habits, even my speech - is a combination of the books I choose to read, the people I choose to listen to, and the thoughts I choose to tolerate in my mind

Touch Me, but not with your hands.

God made me fast. And when I run, I feel His pleasure.

I didn't know that my life forever changing would be because you loved me and then left, and in such a final way.

When you make your peace with authority, you become authority.

I will listen to you, especially when we disagree.

I want to hit him, step away and watch him hurt. I want his heart.

My queerness is not a vice, is not deliberate, and harms no one.

Just because I was at an anti-police brutality protest, doesn't mean I'm anti-police. We want justice, but stop shooting unarmed people.

I was always fascinated with people and places and seeing things I didn't know about.
