Personal Quotes 

If it's a real passion, it's almost like a need. As a child, I got bored with my surroundings, so I would be another person for a little while. I was obsessed with Captain Planet and the Planeteers (1990) so I developed into one of the characters and told everyone that I was the character. It's like a need, you have to change. And as soon as I've finished one thing, I'm like, okay, what can I be next?
