You make me lovely, and it's so lovely to be lovely to the one I love.

It's my experience that people are a lot more sympathetic if they can see you hurting, and for the millionth time in my life I wish for measles or smallpox or some other easily understood disease just to make it easier on me and also on them.

I do my best thinking at night when everyone else is sleeping. No interruptions. No noise. I like the feeling of being awake when no one else is.

Music did that to me, just like God was supposed to, because music seemed both magic and holy.

You need shoving, not pushing. You need to jump back on that camel. Otherwise you're going to stay up on the ledge you've made for yourself.

We are all alone, trapped in these bodies and our own minds, and whatever company we have in this life is only fleeting and superficial.

The thing I realize is, that it's not what you take, it's what you leave.
