We only have one lifetime that we're definite about, that we're sure about. We've only got a hundred years here, if we're lucky. So why not start thinking of ways to change the way we treat each other, the way we talk to each other, the way we talk about each other? You know, it starts with self-love. We have to love ourself before we love anybody else. And the media, from day one, from when you were a little-ass kid, they teach you not to love yourself. They take something out of you, and try to sell it back to you. With that Benz that you buy after college, with that townhouse. Something that you've been fighting for your whole life that was taken from you as a child, that you always had inside of you - that's self-love. They teach you not to love yourself, but if you don't love yourself how can you love someone else? That's why I love you so much, because as everybody knows, I love me so much.
