"You should never assume. You know what happens when you assume. You make an ass out of you and me because that's how it's spelled."
"I hope I make people feel better. I hope I take people out of their situations a little bit and make them happier. That's really why I do what I do."
"Things will get easier, people's minds will change, and you should be alive to see it."
