I understand that it's good tactics to categorize me as a close-minded, unobjective extremist, but nobody that respects me has those views.

I have an extremely addictive personality. I'm an extremist.

You're always going to have extremists in every religion.

I'm an extremist, I have to deal with my own extreme personality, and I walk the fine line of wanting to die and wanting to be the ruler of it all.

I don't think people by nature are extremists. You will never find a population of extremists. Extremists have existed throughout the centuries on all religions. And what happens is, extremists start to have more leverage when the situation is bad.

I've always been an extremist. Some of us have very addictive personalities, and for some of us, that mechanism gets tripped up. Mine certainly did. I'm not cured. You never are. The recovery is a day-to-day process.

Political extremism involves two prime ingredients: an excessively simple diagnosis of the world's ills, and a conviction that there are identifiable villains back of it all.

Whenever you have a crisis, you're always going to have the extremists taking advantage of the situation.

I thought I was really a radical, political person, which of course I am not.
