What is hard to remember when you're in the middle of it is that when you get through to the other side, you always walk away with a gift. If you can stand in there and not walk away from it, you get transformed by it.

I remember going to the theatre when I was little and the lights going down and just getting really scared about what was going to happen up there.

And I've been walking 'round with memories way too long.

The psychiatric ward was a really creepy place and, hindsight being 20/20, the creepiest thing about it was that I truly belonged there.

It's like climbing a staircase. I'm on the top of the staircase, I look behind me and I see the steps. That's where I was.

I remember it was hard to believe that I was taking a step onto the lunar surface.

I remember when I first walked into Mayer's cavernous office. You had to walk 50 yards to get to him, and in that time he could really study everything about you.

I remember being taught my place.

It was like I was in a tunnel. Not only the tunnel under the hotel but the whole circuit was a tunnel. I was just going and going, more and more and more and more. I was way over the limit but still able to find even more.

I remember walking out in front of that crowd, all the parents' faces and the applause, and folding my little self in half and thinking, 'I could get used to this.' And I just never stopped.
