I might have been made of metal once, but not anymore. Like Pinocchio, I'd turned into a real girl. So far it sucked. But there was nothing I could do about it.

I didn't want to die. I just found death soothing to think about.

No amount of wishing will bring back the dead.

The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy.

My dreams are all of fire – mother says dreams usually go by opposites, so does that mean the world will end in ice?

And I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples and bastards and broken things.

I'm really proud of myself because I've pared my beauty regimen down to a cream blush and berry-tinted lip balm, which has saved me so much time.

But, o, photography! as no art is,Faithful and disappointing! That recordsDull days as dull, and hold-it smiles as frauds,And will not censor blemishes,Like washing-lines, and Hall's-Distemper boards

Now could you please ask these idiots to stop pointing their bullets at me? It's terribly wasteful.

It is the essence of truth that it is never excessive.... We must not resort to the flame where only light is required.
