All pleasure should be a little bent, don't you think?

They are called 'Emos' now, and before that they were 'Goths.' They didn't have a name for it when I was one, but I was that black-wearing teenager and yes, I wore a little eyeliner.

I always compare reading anything on the Internet to listening at doors. If you don't want to hear anything bad about yourself, you should never do it.

I'm a great believer in the beauty and the power of surprise.

You can always expect tragedy as well as adventure; that's just how it goes.

The best that an individual can do is to concentrate on what he or she can do, in the course of a burning effort to do it better.

I loved everything about marriage. I loved having a companion to wake up with and have barbecues with. But things happen and people grow apart.

I have come up the hard way.

I'm so respectable I'm getting scared ... I must be doing something wrong.

It is quite unsettling looking into someone's eyes, especially when you aren't used to it.
