Quotes

I think whenever a relationship comes to an end, it's natural to feel many emotions - such as being heartbroken, lonely and hurt. Whatever you are feeling, you shouldn't put your life on hold. You shouldn't spend the next couple of months moping around or begging for that person to come back. There was a reason things turned out the way they did and as hard as it may be, you have to learn to accept it. Holding on only causes more pain. You are only punishing yourself. It's important now to get your independence back, to do activities you love and to surround yourself in good company. You will love again, never lose hope on that. But the most important person you should love is yourself.

Being in the adult Industry has taught me that being who I am, and being proud of myself, is important. Porn can change people in so many ways. For example, I have watched people grow who went from a shy 'nobody' to this big huge star. And then they change. They get so many people admiring them, they get lost in it all. They think they're something special. It's frustrating at times, You try to talk to them and they look down at you. I'm not going to become bitchy or go down the path of vanity. It's all pretentious and I don't like it. You can be confident, sure of who you are, and still treat people nicely.

People who don't know me tend to tell me about how great my life must be and how amazing I am. I'm a normal guy who has a normal life, not many friends and I have problems with my close ones from time to time. Just like yourself and every other person in the public eye.
