You were looking for a way to change your life.
You could not do this on your own.
All the ways you wish you could be, that’s me.
I look like you wanna look, I fuck like you wanna fuck.
I am smart, capable, and most importantly,
I am free in all the ways that you are not.
What I was really hanging around for, I was trying to feel some kind of goodbye. I mean I’ve left school and places I didn’t even know I was leaving them. I hate that. I don’t care if it’s a sad good-bye or a bad good-bye, but when I leave a place I like to know I’m leaving it. If you don’t, you feel even worse.
Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication.
Morality, like art, means drawing a line...
If you really want to hear about it, the first thing you’ll probably want to know is where I was born, and what my lousy childhood was like, and how my parents were occupied and all before they had me, and all that David Copperfield kind of crap, but I don’t feel like going into it, if you want to know the truth.

Because his life had unlimited potential for happiness, insofar as it was a white, empty room. He would fall asleep with his heart at the foot of...
Everyone, at some point in their lives, wakes up in the middle of the night with the feeling that they are all alone in the world, and that nobody loves them now and that nobody will ever love them, and that they will never have a decent night’s sleep again and will spend their lives wandering blearily around a loveless landscape, hoping desperately that their circumstances will improve, but...
I like to see people reunited, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can’t tell fast enough, the ears that aren’t big enough, the eyes that can’t take in all of the change, I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing someone.
I get up every morning determined to both change...
I felt like destroying something beautiful.
It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder...
