I'd been in a vicious cycle and circle of people and couldn't see my way out. So I picked myself up one day about 15 years ago and moved where I didn't know anyone.

I don't let everyone pick me up. I only let myself be picked up by whomever I want to be picked up by.

After school, I'd wait for someone to pick me up and no one would, so I'd be like, 'I guess I'll walk home.' I had to be a hustler, because nobody did anything for me.

I hardly ever go out when I'm home.

I always felt that if somebody picks on you it's because they're not happy doing what they're doing.

I just aspire to pick people up. That's my ambition.

People ask me where I go to get away, and I say 'Home.'

I think anybody who goes away finds you appreciate home more when you return.

With my hours, I don't hang out with anybody. I work and come home to my Upper West Side apartment.
