There are two reasons not to tell the truth--becuase lying will get you what you want, and because lying will keep someone from getting hurt.

You couldn't have strength without weakness, you couldn't have light without dark, you couldn't have love without loss

My friends say I have two speeds: fast and blistering.

You are only as invincible as your smallest weakness, and those are tiny indeed - the length of a sleeping baby's eyelash, the span of a child's hand. Life turns on a dime, and - it turns out - so does one's conscience.

The cost of growth is always a small act of violence.

I would tell them that when you look at a person, you never know what the're hiding.

Remember when you were a little kid and you'd fall asleep in the car? And someone would carry you out and put you into bed, so that when you woke up in the morning, you knew automatically you were home again? That's what I think it's like to die.
