“I'm finding that people reading the book [The Heroin Diaries: A Year In The Life Of A Shattered Rock Star] are saying, "You came from one background, I came from this background - you were a rock star, I was a CEO. I didn't have a heroin/coke problem, but I had a pill problem. But I also fell from grace, didn't know how to get recovery, and I am now in recovery." People tell me that their kids read it and told them they'll never do drugs - "This book really shows me where it goes."” PeopleKnowsYearsBookShowsProblemKidsReadingStarsKnow HowGraceRocksDrugFindingsBackgroundsRecoveryShow MeCeoPillsDiariesRock StarShatteredHeroinCoke Author:Nikki Sixx
“I thought the first two seasons of America's Got Talent were good. I think this one is the best one by a mile because they - you see the difference this year, I think, with the crowd being effectively the fourth judge. But most importantly, I think that these shows have to have a relevance because if you're not finding stars at the back of these shows - whether it's Idol or Got Talent - they're a complete waste of time.” IfsThinkingYearsFirstsTwoShowsAmericaStarsDifferencesTalentJudgingWasteFindingsSeasonsCrowdsMilesWasting TimeIdolsFourthRelevance Author:Simon Cowell
“I grew up as a fan of the original Star Trek series. When I was in middle school, I think in the 6th grade, I remember going to a book fair and finding a book called The Making of Star Trek, by Stephen Whitfield, and I grabbed it and took and home and just devoured it, over and over again. It was a really influential book.

“Cherish your solitude. Take trains by yourself to places you have never been. Sleep out alone under the stars. Learn how to drive a stick shift. Go so far away that you stop being afraid of not coming back. Say no when you don’t want to do something. Say yes if your instincts are strong, even if everyone around you disagrees. Decide whether you want to be liked or admired. Decide if fitting in is more important than finding out what you’re doing here. Believe in kissing.” IfsWantLifeBelieveImportantStrongStarsSleepSolitudeKissingFindingsTrainSticksInstinctCherishDisagreeFar AwayComing BackFittingBeing Afraid Author:Eve Ensler
