My mother always bought our birthday gifts.

What I like about graduation speeches is that they're an opportunity for someone to make sense of their life and to impart that wisdom to someone else. It's like a sanctioned self-help moment.

I love graduation speeches. I have always loved them; I will always love them.

Graduation speeches force you to reflect. They are about consciousness. Nothing is better than consciousness.

We are all just little dolls of ourselves. Who occasionally pull back the curtains to reveal the real us.

When I was a kid, I would be watching TV shows like, you know, like 'Get Smart' and be like, 'That's what being an adult is.'
