Sure, I'm crazy. But that used to mean something. Now, everybody's crazy.
The real strong have no need to prove it to the phonies.
If I wanted to kill somebody, I'd take this book and beat you to death with it, and I wouldn't feel a thing.
Animals shouldn’t be hunted and nature shouldn’t be disturbed, even destroyed, to benefit the whims of mankind
I'm Jesus Christ, whether you want to accept it or not, I don't care.
I ain't got no magical powers and mystical trips and all that kind of crap. It's kind of silly.
These children that come at you with knives, they are your children. You taught them. I didn't teach them. I just tried to help them stand up.
If I wanted anyone killed, I'd kill them myself. But I don't want anyone killed because I love my own life. Does that make any sense? I love life and I love living, but no, I don't want to live in society. Society don't want me, why should I want them? I don't belong in society and there's no place in society that I fit.
Maybe I should have killed four, five hundred people. Then I would have felt better. Then I would have felt like I really offered society something.

Anything you see in me is in you. If you want to see a vicious killer, that's who you'll see, do you understand that? If you see me as your brother, that's what I'll be. It all depends on how much love you have. I am you, and when you can admit that, you will be free. I am just a mirror.
