You want to embrace, but I can't figure out how to hold on to it.

You live through stuff, and it affects the way you feel about the world, and you write about it.

I feel like I've been in love, but I have stood aside from it over and over again in my life. It's all you want, but it's terrifying.

Closeness to another person is like a fear of falling off a building to me. It's really, like, physically painful, and it's a brand of crazy I don't appreciate having.

I think that, often, the people who can make you happy are right there, and having them in your life would make your life better, but you can't see how to do it.

People really need to show up early to hear Hollis Brown. They are just an unbelievable live band.

Time and time again I can't please myself.
