• Durante años nos han machacado con el tópico "la información es poder". Pero la información no es poder. Después de todo, ¿quién tiene más información en tu barrio? Los bibliotecarios. Y son famosos por no tener ningún poder. ¿Y quién tiene más poder en tu comunidad? Los políticos. Y son famosos por estar mal informados.

• [I hate] the ways that people want their special needs to be met, whether it's their food allergies or their special lotions or shoes. Or the ways that people want their neighborhoods and restaurants curated in a way that's really tailored to them. Growing up with someone who was living by these very strict, repressive rules for themselves - it made me very allergic to the idea of denial.

• Coming from the South and growing up in L.A. where it was so segregated - worse than the South in many ways - all the people in my neighborhood were from the South. So you had that Southern cultured environment. The church was very important. And there were these folk ways that were there. I was always fascinated by these Southern stories, people would share these mystified experiences of the South. I wanted to talk about folklore.

• Contradictions, most of all, a balance between chaos and order. It needs neighborhoods vibrating with energy just as much as cozy little corners and parks; well-tended, middle-class sections as well as an alternative scene; technology centers for innovative youth and social facilities for older people.

• I don't believe in art like I used to. I believe in something beyond it, something that contains art and everything else. But I just don't quite have the nerve to chuck drawing and painting. Part of it is that I enjoy it too much, and part is that I don't have the courage to renounce the world. I don't want to move out of this nice neighborhood so that I can live in a shed and devote myself to meditating and touching something I can't feel. I'm addicted to the fun of playing in the world.

• My ideal city is more like the city (New York and Paris come to mind, but it sort of applies to all) that existed up to and including the 1930s, when different classes lived all together in the same neighborhoods, and most businesses of any sort were mom-and-pop, and people and things had a local identity.

• Crecí en zonas de bajos ingresos y he visto a gente que toma la energía negativa y simplemente la acepta. Se rinden y acaban viviendo una vida bastante dura. Desde muy joven supe que no iba a ceder porque no quería acabar siendo una de esas personas del barrio que no tenían nada y vivían una vida dura.

• When the kids see the poverty in their neighborhood, but they see these successful kids who come from the countries they come from, come from Mexico, come from Korea, come from the Philippines, come from Salvador, and were doing really well, it motivates them to do better.

• No me gustan sus ciudades y fortalezas, con sus cañones matutinos y vespertinos y sus velas ondeando a los ojos. Quiero un continente entero para respirar, y una buena cantidad de soledad y silencio, como todo Wall Street no puede comprar, --ni Broadway con su pavimento de madera. Debo vivir a lo largo de la playa, en la orilla sur, que mira directamente al mar, y ver lo que significa ese gran desfile de agua, que se precipita y ruge, y que todavía no me ha mojado, mientras yo he vivido.
