"Rock 'n' roll is not red carpets and MySpace friends, rock'n'roll is dangerous and should piss people off"

"I went to school in drag, in art school and my day was completely different because everybody thought I was a chick. You should see me as a chick. So I went as a girl, as like an experiment and it worked really well and everyone was really nice to me but I couldn't talk obviously...you know train conductors were really cool to me on my commute...HA! I looked hot as a chick!"

"Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself to become a new person."

"I’ve gotta get out of the basement. I’ve gotta see the world. I’ve gotta make a difference"

"There was a moment in my life when I really wanted to kill myself. And there was one other moment when I was close to that. . . . But even in my most jaded times, I had some hope."

"Life is but a dream for the dead."

"no matter how ugly the world gets or how stupid it shows me it is, I always have faith"

"Would you destroy Something perfect in order to make it beautiful?"

"Those guys who want to have the Mohawk...which, to me, is the new business casual."

"Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections."

"Rock 'n' roll is not red carpets and MySpace friends, rock'n'roll is dangerous and should piss people off"

"Are you on our side...and want to be different, or are you on that side and want to throw a football at my head!?"

"You need just the right amount of 'Fuck the world' and the right amount of belief in something...and you need the right amount of love."

"There was a moment in my life when I really wanted to kill myself. And there was one other moment when I was close to that. . . . But even in my most jaded times, I had some hope."

"This shit is easy peasy, pumpkin peasy, pumpkin pie, muthafucka!"

"Well my gun fires seven different shades of shit, so what's your favorite color, punk?"

"Tears are words the heart can't express"

"The difference we wanna make is number one to let these kids know that they’re not alone, that they’re actually not that messed up and that they can do whatever they want; they can express themselves however they want, without being persecuted or called a faggot or some kind of racist thing. You know, really just to get people to get over their stuff so they can live."

"Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect. It means that you've decided to look beyond the imperfections."
