I have dedicated my life to a doomed struggle against reality and the things that cannot be otherwise

The junkie ignites his feelings with ugly synthetic substances, and the emotions that were meant to last for a lifetime burn away in full force in a couple of short years.

The earliest childhood memories are woven by shadows. And some of these shadows are woven from fire.

Dependence on drugs is not a disease, it is not a virus, it is not something that stalks only the dregs of society. Drug addiction is REALIZED EMOTIONAL DEFICIENCY SYNDROME.

Most people are dependent on legal drugs but this is somehow not an obstacle to seeing an enemy in every underground addict.

Was aus Liebe getan wird, geschieht immer jenseits von Gut und Böse. (What is done out of love always takes place beyond good and evil.)

Technology is great...when it works.

Rain. Tumble, bumble and, fall on me. Any old day, any old way. Come for a visit, or come for a stay. Rain, rain, don't go away.

I'm just doing the best I can now to keep this going... trying to grow up and remain young at the same time.

I think that literary forms are losing their capacity to connect people to issues, to the experiences that feel most meaningful to them.

It was so important for me to lose everything, because I found out what the most important thing is, which is to be true to yourself.

The United States is a nation of laws: badly written and randomly enforced.

The experiences you'll have, the people you'll love, the jobs, the joys, the sorrows, the way you'll die. It is all predestined, unless you will a change.

There's a lot of letters in Ladanian Tomlinson

I have some really, really good friends, to whom I'm very close, that I'm not revealing anything to, and that's really hard.
