- "I'm an art major; I love art. It's the only thing there is, if you think about it. Yeah, I said it. What are you gonna do? What are you gonna FUCKING do?"

Like FIRST OF ALL, first of all, first of all, first of all, first of all, first of all, first of all, my tax money pays for YOUR salary, homeboy, you know what I'm sayin'? Like, MELLOW THE FUCK OUT.'"
- "So he's coming up to me and he's all like 'You can't beat up homeless people.' And I'm like 'I don't- You know what? No. You're just taking this situation COMPLETELY out of context. Like, DUH.' Like, see, I don't know if he knew what 'context' meant, but I know because I go to NYU and we use words like that ALL THE TIME HERE. Like EVERY DAY we say that word. And like, the word aesthetics too? I ALWAYS say that. ALWAYS. "

Literally, like my mom told me that when I was in the fetus I would write songs on sheet music and like, that sounds weird but it was beautiful music because I was so young and they knew I was going to be a prodigy.

Look in your reflection and you'll see me, naked, holding a Rolling Stone from 2006 because I know all the music that was then...and now. Fly me to Paris and I'll take you on a tour...of Paris. Barack Obama. Sip your coffee like a London prostitute. Prostitute. Question mark. Question park. Nobody knows it, but you only started listening to that band AFTER they got popular. Space heaters can't fill the gap in your heart. Like art. Don't fart. It'll be AWKWARD. Identity. Metaphysical contemplation is not masturbation. It's inebriation. And scientification. So put that in your pipe. And crack it. Freedom. I understand."

- "Dude, me and my friends in Seatlle were fucking chilling in Guantanamo Bay the other day? Not as bad as everyone says it is. It gets a really bad rep, but like the parties are UN-FUCKING-REAL. So much like, pure heroin, like you can't even like breathe. I OD'd like six times. You should've been there. I was like purple and they were like 'She's gonna die!' and I was like 'Whatever'."
