“Be what you are. Don't change yourself for anything. God made you that way for a reason.”
“Don't ever write anything you don't like yourself and if you do like it, don't take anyone's advice about changing it. They just don't know.”
“That becomes the revolution, to be idealistic enough that you think you can change the world, and what you find is you can't change anything but yourself.”
“...none of us knows anything. We think we know, then it turns out that we don't. The universe has a way of intervening. Of changing you. In the end, you don't know what you're seeking, and you don't know what you'll find.”
“People don't change. If anything, you get more set in your ways as you get older, not less”
“Oh no. Oh God. I couldn't possibly be so stupid.""Don't limit yourself. You can be anything you wish.”
