We have met the enemy and he is us.
I think I'm at a place where I haven't really been encountered by anyone overtly strange. But people think they know me.
I never wanted to give up my given name. I'm proud of it, but the only problem was that no one remembered it. It was just a little too awkward, and they mispronounced it so frequently.
Everything starts from a dot.
An empty canvas is a living wonder... far lovelier than certain pictures.
The deeper the blue becomes, the more strongly it calls man towards the infinite, awakening in him a desire for the pure and, finally, for the supernatural... The brighter it becomes, the more it loses its sound, until it turns into silent stillness ...

When we first met, I was trying to put a band together. I asked around at school for other guys who wanted to play in a band. Someone told me about a juvenile delinquent they knew who played bongos.
But when they offered this little situation for me to do this voice in this special segment, I found it so incredibly humorous that I said yes, and I enjoyed it. It was fun.
I think that's so strange, because they do know that we're all actors and we perform things that have not necessarily anything to do with us personally.
I'm very surprised at that, yes, because there were many chances for it to be in Germany once the syndication market started and it continually just did not happen.
