“There's no drama like wrestling.”

“While all the other kids were out playing ball and stuff, I used to stay in my room and imagine that there was a camera in the wall. And I used to really believe that I was putting on a television show and that it was going out to somewhere in the world.”

“You never see a positive drug story on the news. They always have the same LSD story. You’ve all seen it: “Today a young man on acid… thought he could fly… jumped out of a building… what a tragedy!” What a d*ck. He’s an idiot. If he thought he could fly, why didn’t he take off from the ground first? Check it out? You don’t see geese lined up to catch elevators to fly south; they fly from the f*cking ground. He’s an idiot. He’s dead. Good! We lost a moron? F*cking celebrate! There’s one less moron in the world.”
