"I created myself, and I'll attack anybody I feel like."

-- Edward Albee

“There may be something good in silence. It's a brand new thing. You can hear the funniest little discussions, if you keep turning the volume down. Shut yourself up, and listen out loud.”

“People are fooled by the colour of my skin. I grew up on the north side of Fredericton in a Celtic culture with an Acadian choir. Don't let the black fool you. I'm actually quite white.

“Here's the thing about earnestness. Our culture discounts it; but people are yearning for it.”
