It's not like I try to be different, but every single person is unique, and every single person has special things to offer, and it's about embracing it and not being afraid of the fact that maybe you're different or quirky, but it's okay to be different, and it can be a wonderful thing.

There's nothing that everyone likes in the world. People have different opinions. It's just the way of living. I know that there will be differences.

I don't appeal to everyone well. I appeal to fewer people in a much stronger way. That's what fandom is to me, and what creates fans for everything I make.

The idea of appealing to people of a like mind and like spirit always appealed to me.

You get so used to a world that you complain, but never actually want anything different. Why crave the unfamiliar?

For me, everything that you're passionate about always comes with a little pain. That's how life is, and that's how I want to live it. I don't want it to be balanced and ordinary.

As unique as we all are, an awful lot of us want the same things. We want to shake up our current less-than-fulfilling lives. We want to be happier, more loving, forgiving and connected with the people around us.

I've always embraced everything and been open-minded about what's ahead.

I think what really people want is just a few things done really, really well. And if you think about ever day of your life, the things you really appreciate aren't the complicated things. They're the simple things that work just the way you expect them to.

Fundamentally, we all want the same thing. We want to love. We want to be loved, and we want to matter.
