"The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first."
"If my poetry aims to achieve anything, it's to deliver people from the limited ways in which they see and feel."
"Some of the worst mistakes in my life were haircuts"
"No one here gets out alive."
"Listen, real poetry doesn't say anything; it just ticks off the possibilities. Opens all doors. You can walk through anyone that suits you."
