There's an awful lot of white British kids who have never really gone hungry, always had a roof to live under but at the same time are desperately unhappy. It's not total poverty, just a poverty of ideas.

When I sit in my bedroom with a book and a bottle of vodka, I do it because I'm sad, not because I think it's cool. I do it because I want to forget what I am thinking about.

Love is an impossible concept.

All my life I've felt weak compared to other people. If they want to crush me then they can. But I know I can do things that other people can't.

I’m not really worried what people think about me. Because I judge myself harsher, and on more strict terms, than they ever could probably.

We are young, beautiful scum pissed off with the world.

It’s important not to be embarrassed by your past. The contradictions are part of what we are.
