All my life, I always wanted to be somebody. Now I see that I should have been more specific.

I didn't know who the hell I was. I was whoever they wanted me to be.

I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific.

I had everything I'd hoped for, but I wasn't being myself. So I decided to be honest about who I was. It was strange: The people who loved me for being funny suddenly didn't like me for being... me.

I was never considered cool throughout my teens: a very important time to be accepted by someone, especially your peers. Yes, I had all the screaming women, but the guys hated my guts.

When I was younger, the pressure was just being cool. I never thought of myself as a cool guy. I always thought of myself as more of the goofy guy.

I never had the chance to consider what or how I wanted to be.

I always imagined I could be what I wanted to be.

I'd reached a point where there was a direct conflict between what I was trying to be and who I really was.
