You work at a job, and you reach a certain level, and you're a little satisfied, and you keep going at it a little more, and you finally finish it. You go, 'Ah,' all your dopamine receptor sites are full. You're satiated.

I get irritated, nervous, very tense or stressed, but never bored.

My laziness is really profound. I'm really interested in where it comes from - it almost feels chemical. And we've all got ADD now, short attention span and all that.

So my idea of neurotic is spending too much time trying to correct a wrong. When I feel that I'm doing that, then I snap out of it.

When I play, I become entirely absorbed in the game. It may be a form of concentration.

I tend to get my hands into all these other things and all these distractions, and after a while I start feeling depleted.

My mind rebels at stagnation. Give me problems, give me work, give me the most abstruse cryptogram, or the most intricate analysis, and I am in my own proper atmosphere. But I abhor the dull routine of existence. I crave for mental exaltation.

I used to swallow people's energies, and then I learned, as I got older, that I'm too sensitive, and I had to stop doing that. Now I don't take as much in.

I have been a lifelong stutterer, and when I was young, I experienced some very difficult times.

I'm such a control freak, and it's very hard for me to lose my inhibitions without something chemical inside me.
