““The point is, they have a public thing against the overweight and the underbeautiful. Those are my people there, Jared. Those are the people who pull the curtain and write the plays and make the costumes—those are the people who make the dream but who don’t live it on the front of the stage. Anyone who knocks those people is not going to get my business. Or yours, because you’re better than that.””
