Interview


 

Do you believe in falling in love

Yes

It’s just not practical

Are you afraid of it

No

It’s just

Inconvenient

What about Death

It just is

Isn’t it

What about marriage

I think my eye is bleeding

Sorry

No

No what

No I don’t believe in it.  I don’t think anybody does 

What do you mean

It’s ludacris

What is

That you can imagine yourself happy with someone

There are plenty of happily

No

You don’t understand

You have to work for happiness

It doesn’t just show up on the doorstep

Yes but

No

They run ‘round with these ideas in their heads that somebody out there is going to massage your feet for nothing but a smile

It’s about giving

It’s about taking and being taken

Nothing is free

Nothing is painless

At least I am honest about it

I want more than can be given

So I ask for nothing

I love everybody and I trust no one
