“I have always disliked being a man. The whole idea of manhood in America is pitiful, in my opinion.

“Coming back to America was, for me, much more of a culture shock than going to India. The people in the Indian countryside don't use their intellect like we do, they use their intuition instead, and their intuition is far more developed than in the rest of the world.
