I just sat there letting that music cover me like a big, cozy blanket.

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.

I looked at my reflection in the rearview mirror. Some lipstick would go with this truck, I thought.

Sorry wastes time. You have to live your life like you'll never be sorry. It's easier just to do the right thing from the start so there's nothing to apologize for.

It's my experience that people are a lot more sympathetic if they can see you hurting.

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

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