BEST MOMENTS

"If anyone tells you you can't or you shouldn't, that really fuels me."

"I'm a demonstration. That's my ultimate thing. Like, I'm a demonstration to my kids about what's possible. Don't just tell them, show them."

"Depression didn't give a fuck. Bipolar didn't give a fuck about it. My problems are worse than your problems. It actually made it worse because I had more money to spend on coke. Do you know what I mean? It made the whole thing worse."

"I wasn't being fully me on the outside. I remember a conversation I had with Mark actually was like, 'Paul I know all these different versions of you, which one is it?' I'm like, all of them. I'm fucking all of them."

"Everyone in life is either a drain and they suck the life out, fun out of everything, or when you see them, they just light you up."
