“I kinda see everyone as competition. I'm a very competitive person. But I think that's good. Competition is great. And as long as it's friendly and not a malicious thing, then I think it's cool.”
“That's a part of me going back to what I used to do.”
“In complete darkness, it is only knowledge and wisdom that separates us.”
“When I'm feeling down on myself or not feeling good about who I am, or maybe something happened and I'm feeling depressed, I eat to fill that void. Afterwards I'll beat myself up about it. I regret doing it, but I'll turn around and do it again.”
“I really don't know anything else because my brothers were famous when I was two years old. So I know nothing else, no other life.”
