Banning books gives us silence when we need speech. It closes our ears when we need to listen. It makes us blind when we need sight.

Most of the people I know who were raised to be accommodating or were raised to just be nice and put everybody's needs ahead of theirs, there comes a moment when the pressure builds and they can't do it anymore. They have needs and they feel neglected and they usually explode.

I just wish that God or my parents or Sam or my sister or someone would just tell me what's wrong with me. Just tell me how to be different in a way that makes sense. To make this all go away.

Girls are weird, and I don't mean that offensively. I just can't put it any other way.

Try to be a filter, not a sponge.

Do you always think this much? It's just that sometimes people use thought to not participate in life.
