If a person is treated like a patient, they are apt to act like one.

I just knew that God wasn't there. He was a man on a throne in Heaven, so he was easy to forget.

Have you ever had a broken heart?

The more people pointed at me in scorn the more stubborn I got and when they began calling me the Bad Girl of West Seattle High, I tried to live up to it.

There comes a point when a dream becomes reality and reality becomes a dream.

I couldn't get that same feeling during the day, with my hands in dirty dish water and the hard sun showing up the dirtiness on the roof tops. And after a time, even at night, the feeling of God didn't last.

I minded my own business, and, unfortunately, so did everyone else.
