As a youth, I and most of the other smarter kids in school got picked on by bullies. I was a big guy - even at a young age - and would take the beatings for my friends, who were often smaller and scrawnier.

I'm not a big guy for research. You've got to take a risk.

I'm a big root beer guy.

We put so much pressure on kids to excel in school at such a young age.

La juventud es un engaño -un engaño de la prensa y libros de texto. ¡La mejor época de la vida! […] La juventud es la época más difícil de la existencia.

When I was a kid, we would build pillow forts. My pillow fort was always like Ice Station 9 in Antarctica. The other kids would come by and be like, 'Oh! The wind and snow is blowing.' From a young age, I wanted to be out there and surviving. I'm a high-strung, hyperactive guy.
