The punches came fast and hard, lying on my back in the school yard.

Never bully anyone because Karma has everyone's address and a motherf**king stamp!

There really is no difference between the bully and the victim.

To this day, some of my closest friends say, 'Gaga, you know, everything's great. You're a singer; your dreams have come true.' But, still, when certain things are said to you over and over again as you're growing up, it stays with you and you wonder if they're true.

Together we hope to establish a standard of Bravery and Kindness, as well as a community worldwide that protects and nurtures others in the face of bullying and abandonment.

I was called really horrible, profane names very loudly in front of huge crowds of people, and my schoolwork suffered at one point.
