I really did for a few weeks think, I'm in pain because the world needs me to save it. Which is so ridiculous and egotistical.

We want to believe we couldn't be replaced, and that the people we love are irreplaceable.

The belief that one's suffering has a greater cosmic purpose, and is thus more exciting and more noble, well, it made a lot of sense to me.

No matter what you wear, not everyone is going to understand what you're saying.

Whenever I hang out with my female friends, I feel like context is never needed. They can just say two words about something, it's like hearing the first two notes of a song and you can always identify the song. They can just say a word and I know exactly what they're talking about.

I want the plot to be as complicated as possible. Usually I'll write all the way through to an end, and then I go back and try to fix the ending so that it makes sense. I don't think out the plot ahead of time.

I wish somebody knew whether or not I'm Jewish.
