- ''do you know we're in high demand, laura? us, people who suffer, because we don't take to arguing and we're quick to surrender''
- ''but you should never be embarrassed by your trouble with livin' 'cause it's the ones with the sorest throats, laura, who have done the most singing''
- ''i'm not sure what the trouble was that started all of this. the reasons all have run away, but the feeling never did. ''

- rilo kiley
- ''i do this thing where i think i'm real sick, but i won't go to the doctor to find out about it 'cause they make you stay real still in a real small space as they chart up your insides and put them on display. they'd see all of it, all of me, all of it, all the good that won't come out of me and all the stupid lies i hide behind''

- ''he said, "it's all in your head," and i said, "so's everything," but he didn't get it.''
- ''and if you want to make sense, whatcha looking at me for? i'm no good at math''
- ''jonathan, anything and anyone that you have done has gotta be alright with me. if she's part of the reason you are how you are, she's alright with me.''
- ''kiss me while i calculate and calibrate and heaven's sake don't make me explain''
- ''i don't wanna talk about, i don't wanna talk about anything.''
- ''how can i ask anyone to love me when all i do is beg to be left alone?''
- ''oh, and i tried to love and i can love the same man, in the same bed, in the same city, but not in the same room, it's a pity, but oh, it never bothered me before, not until this guy, what a guy, oh god, what a good guy and i can't even enjoy him 'cause i'm hard too hard to know, i don't cry when i'm sad anymore''
- ''what'd i say to her? what'd i say to her? what'd she think of me, that i'm not what i ought to be, that i'm what I try not to be. it's got to be somebody else's fault, i can't get caught if what i am is what i am, cause i does what i does''
- ''i just wanna feel everything''
- ''every single night's a fight with my brain''

- ''sylvia, can't you see what you are doing? can't you see i'm scared to speak, and i hate my voice 'cause it only makes you angry. sylvia, i only talk when you are sleeping. that's when i tell you everything, and i imagine that somehow you're going to hear me''
- ''it was easier to lock the doors and kill the phones than to show my skin. because the hardest thing is never to repent for someone else, it's letting people in''
- ''well, you can come inside, unlock the door, take off your shoes. but this might take all night, to explain to you i would have walked out those sliding doors, but the timing never seemed right''
- ''some patients can't be saved, but that burden's not on you. don't ever let anyone tell you you deserve that.''
- ''and like before, you've got no interest in the life you live when you're awake. your dreams still follow storylines, like fictions you would make''
