By the time it's considered socially acceptable to start screwing, most of us are sexually constipated, and this is often an incurable condition.

When you snatch little pieces of other people's lives and try to palm them off as your own, that's more disgusting than anything. Robin Williams is a huge thief. Denis Leary is a huge thief. His whole stand-up career is based on Bill Hicks, a brilliant guy who died years ago.

The so-called citizen journalism is the spewings and rantings of very drunk people late at night.

When you start getting into your politics it's like you have to be vulnerable and you have to be sort of sensitive.

And also you have to be honest with yourself on that, too.
