“I never wanted to be a painter; I wanted to be a tap dancer.”

“When other little girls wanted to be ballet dancers, I kind of wanted to be a vampire.”

“If I ever have any back-up dancers, I want the penguins from Madagascar.”

“I am a painter with letters. I want to restore everything, mix everything up and say everything.”

“I also want the figurative like a painter who only paints abstract colors but wants to show that he does so because he chooses to, not because he can't draw.”

“I could have kisses like that for the rest of my life. Kisses that don't know who I am. Kisses that make me feel more and less than what I am. But my finger tap tap taps on my leg and reminds me that I am not who Adam thinks I am, and it makes me want to cry. It's not that I don't deserve his kiss. It's that the person I am can never really share a life, a soul, with the person he is.”
