There's no destination. there's no getting anywhere. there's just the going. the key to life is to make the going really fun. because people that are like, “if i just get to this, then boom!” and then they get there and there's this dawning of an afterwards. whereas i'm just always in the going. and it's not a frantic going like, “i gotta keep going or i'm gonna go nuts!” i can not do anything for weeks or months if i need to and just sit and read books or watch movies. i'm just as fine consuming and absorbing new art as i am trying to make it. but it's all in the going.

I wasn't involved in anything. i wasn't out - you know, i know i wasn't in act up. i wasn't with larry kramer. i wasn't by his side. i wasn't saying what i should do, because, by all accounts, i was a drug addict and an alcoholic. and i was living in a complete bubble of self-absorption.
Self Drug Sides
I wasn't attractive, i wasn't very verbal, i wasn't very smart in school. i wasn't anything that showed the world i was something special, but i had this tremendous hope all the time. i had this tremendous spirit that kept me going... i was a happy child, because i had this feeling that i was going to go beyond my body physical... i just knew it.

Alas! the road to anywhere is pitfalled with disaster; there's hunger, want, and weariness, yet o we loved it so! as on we tramped exultantly, and no man was our master, and no man guessed what dreams were ours, as, swinging heel and toe, we tramped the road to anywhere, the magic road to anywhere, the tragic road to anywhere, such dear, dim years ago.

I was the second-best player in high school. i was the second pick in the draft. i've been second in the mvp voting three times. i came in second in the finals. i'm tired of being second. i'm not going to settle for that. i'm done with it.

Don't write anything you can phone. don't phone anything you can talk. don't talk anything you can whisper. don't whisper anything you can smile. don't smile anything you can nod. don't nod anything you can wink.
