Quotes By Jason
"It would be presumptuous of me to tell you that we are the only intelligent life form that ever existed. I thought my high school principal was an alien--he was so bland."
"If I could be in any band, I think it would have to be the Beatles. That would have been a lot of fun."
"I believe there is something else out there. People see a lot of things and I think the mind is a very powerful thing."
"I think if I could be any superhero, it'd probably be my mom...but I don't think I'd look too good in high heels, so it's not gonna happen."
