Quotes

"I have a very childlike rage, and a very childlike loneliness."

"You get respect in society if you are agressive. If you fight then people respect you. If you fight back, people like you for that as well. When I've been beaten up, if I've been in a pub doing nothing wrong, the fact I chose not to fight back, that I would never throw a punch back, people say I'm weak. I don't think that's a weak thing at all. I think why should I descend to their level? If I've done nothing wrong, throwing a punch back makes me as bad and corrupt as them. As evil as them, as stupid as them."
