• Despite your best efforts, people will get hurt when it's time for them to be hurt
  • Nobody likes being alone that much. I don't go out of my way to make friends, that's all. It just leads to disappointment.
  • Memory is a funny thing. When I was in the scene I hardly paid it any attention. I never stopped to think of it as smth that would make a lasting impression, certainly never imagines that 18 years later I would recall it in such detail
  • but your probloems are not going to continue for the rest of your life

  • Everything was too sharp and clear, so that I could never tell where to start - the way a map that shows too much can sometimes be useless
  • death exists, not as the opposite but as part of life
  • I don't know, sometimes I think I've got this hard kernel in my heart, and nothing much can get inside it. I doubt if I can really love anybody
  • if you only read books that everyone else is reading, you can only thing what everyone else is thinking
  • nobody likes being alone. I just hate to be disappointed
  • Life doesn't require ideals. It requires standards of acion
  • I am a flawed human being - a far more flawed human being than you realize
  • just as people have idiosyncrasies in the way he or she walks, pple have idiosyncrasies in the way they thing and feel and see things, and though you might want to correct them, it doesn't happen overnight, and if you try to force the issue in one case, smth else might go funny.
  • what makes us normal is knowing that we are not normal
  • things will go where they're supposed to go if you just let them take their natural course
