For people who may think they know, or have snippets of who I am, you can attack that person. That's part of being a public figure.

People who are against me attack me personally. They attack the way I look physically, they attack the way I dress, they attack everything but what I say.

One of the lessons that I grew up with was to always stay true to yourself and never let what somebody else says distract you from your goals. And so when I hear about negative and false attacks, I really don't invest any energy in them, because I know who I am.

I'm not a person who defends myself very often. I kind of let my actions speak for me.

The attacks of which I have been the object have broken the spring of life in me... People don't realize what it feels like to be constantly insulted.

The best way to counter-attack a hater is to make it blatantly obvious that their attack has had no impact on you.

I haven't physically attacked anyone in a couple of years.

Twelve years ago, if someone attacked me, I wouldn't let them get away with it. I'd take them on. I now perceive my job to include allowing people to vent their rage.

I don't attack innocent people.
