You don’t know how to fix the holes in our ozone layer. You don’t know how to bring salmon back up a dead stream. You don’t know how to bring back an animal now extinct.

Knowing my mistakes and being able to go back to fix them – that helps me out a lot.

I was taught from a very early age that it was probably the most American thing you can do is to question what’s going on and to try to fix things that you see that aren’t right. I believed that as a young person, and I believe that today.

It’s inherently a part of my childhood and my development as a person and an artist, this childlike feeling knowing that something is missing but not quite knowing how to fix it. I’m always drawing on it.

Get your butt in a chair and write. If it comes out weak or bad or clunky or ordinary, then accept that this happens to everyone. Everyone. Get it down, get it done, and fix it in the rewrite. Just like everyone from Stephen King to J. K. Rowling to Chuck Palahniuk does.

I’ve come around to thinking that having Donald Trump in the White House would be wonderful. Even if he isn’t able to achieve very much. Now, daddy’s gonna build the wall, daddy’s gonna fix trade. That’s going to happen.
A four percent growth strategy means you fix a convoluted tax code. You get in and you change every aspect of regulations that are job killers. You get rid of Obamacare and replace it with something that doesn’t suppress wages and kill jobs.

My kids help fix my technology, but Twitter is my everything – I love Twitter.

We’ve seen a lot of people come together, no matter the race, and have support of black people. I think that’s a huge thing. I don’t know if it’s going to fix all our issues, but I think it’s a step in the right direction. I go out and I’ve protested, I’ve marched.
