- QuotesI took a strong antidrug decision many years ago, and I'm going to stick with it. I'm not going to dedicate my life to fighting drugs. For me the best part was to peek into these people's lives, and to do so with humanity. There are so many double standards here - a lot of stuff that people just don't talk about that is a big part of American culture and lifestyle. As an outsider, I can observe and portray this situation from my own point of view, with hopefully a fresh eye.
