There's something so romantic about being broke in New York. You gotta do it. You have to live there once without any money, and then you have to live there when you have money. Let me tell you, of the two, the latter is far better.
I ate two waffles, a banana and cereal with blueberries. And that whas between my two breakfasts.
I'm going to do 'The Social Network Two: The Electric Boogaloo.' And I have a part in 'Beige Swan.' I'm going to be the lead, but I don't dance. I just do a lot of sitting down. It's too tiring to get up and dance around. That should be coming out in 20-never.

If you can speak about what you care about to a person you disagree with without denigrating them or insulting them, then you may actually be heard.
I think if you can dance and be free and not embarrassed, you can rule the world.
However, if you do start crying in an argument and someone asks why, you can always say, 'I'm just crying because of how wrong you are.'
Ignore what other people think. Most people aren’t even paying attention to you.
