I think when it comes to decisions, I try not to be emotional. To drown out the noise and look at the important facts.

I think people do want to cut through the noise, and they do want straight shooters, and they want you to call people out on the facts when the facts are the facts.

Some days I think I look kind of cute, but other days I try to avoid the mirror.

I think one of the most important attributes is perseverance.

Now, look, I - I like to look at evidence. I plead to that. I think evidence is important when you're making decisions that affect other people's lives.

I think my poems immediately come out of the sensuous and emotional experiences I have.
