A wise and frugal Government which shall restrain men from injuring one another which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned.

If God had wanted me otherwise He would have created me otherwise.
The idea of going on tour for the rest of my life with old works is not that exciting. As an artist I definitely think the work in future is going to be better than the work in the past otherwise why do it?
If you really want change you really want it to be inclusive where everyone's included otherwise you're just going to have more of the same in the future.
I think I have a dark view of the world. I have to make everything funny otherwise it all seems so sad.
People ask me if I ever thought of writing a children's book.

It's healthy to have older friends. You go 'Look I'm younger than them!' That's always the nice thing if you can be the youngest one in the room at times.
