I'm just trying to make rent and do my work.

Green is one of my favorite colors.

I don't ever think of myself as a dark person or a ruined person in any way. I just feel happy to be alive, and to be able to love.

I love Meredith Monk, and with Instagram, I get a chance to see if she has a cat, and what's she reading.

I always admired the Celtics from afar.

I admired in others the strength that I lacked myself.

I'm an economic nationalist. I am an 'America first' guy. And I have admired nationalist movements throughout the world, have said repeatedly strong nations make great neighbors. I've also said repeatedly that the ethno-nationalist movement, prominent in Europe, will change over time. I've never been a supporter of ethno-nationalism.

The Champions League was something very distant for us. I grew up in a very small town with 50,000 inhabitants, and it was a way of being able to watch my idols or people I admired play football on television.
