In the silence of night I have often wished for just a few words of love from one man, rather than the applause of thousands of people.

I think there's something peculiar about me that I haven't died. It doesn't make sense but I refuse to die.

You shouldn't be told you're completely irresponsible and be left alone with too much medication. It's too easy to forget.
