Your being born makes your parents God. You owe them your life, and they can control you. Then puberty makes you Satan, just because you want something better.

Don't do what you want. Do what you don't want. Do what you're trained not to want. Do the things that scare you the most.

I wish I had the courage not to fight and doubt everything... I wish, just once, I could say, 'This. This is good enough. Just because I choose it.

You can spend your whole life building a wall of facts between you and anything real.

Everybody looks a little crazy if you're looking close enough and if you can't look that close, then you don't really love them.

Of all the priceless objects left behind, this is what we rescue. These artifacts. Memory cues. Useless souvenirs. Nothing you could auction. The scars left from happiness.

In light this bright, after so long in the dark, everything we can see is only black and white. Only glaring shape-outlines we have to blink against.
